Beauty Is On The Inside...

Recently I read an incredible book, called Swan Song. It is a post-apocalyptic thriller, and throughout the book was a fight for good vs. evil to claim the earth. Those that had good in their hearts, were horrendously deformed by the radiation for many years. Near the end of the book (spoiler alert!), the ugly masks broke apart to reveal their true beauty underneath. I don't want to give anything more away, but just wanted to share how deeply I was moved by the concept of the book, and the way it reminded me that true beauty, does indeed lie on the inside.

I created this ring as a daily reminder, to help keep me humble, and to throw vanity out the window.

This sterling silver band has beautiful and intricate scroll work on the inside, and a rough battered exterior. Most would wear the beautiful design on the outside, but in this case, it will be a reminder to those that desire it, to let your inner beauty shine.

RAW52 - Week 1

So 52 rings, for the year of 2011.

I am part of a wonderful group of talented metalsmiths, all participating in the Ring A Week 2011 Challenge (RAW2011)!

Last year, many participated in a RING A DAY....wow.  I wanted to join in, but knew I could never make a complete piece of jewelry every day due to my schedule.  So this year when I heard about the RAW, I knew that this was actually feasable for me to accomplish.

I will be blogging about my progress, but you can find the official blog HERE



So without further ado, I present my RAW52, Week 1


I have brought back my popular Hammerhead Series


This one has a lovely Laguna Saginite


Oxidized and rusticated to perfection


Tumbled for brillance


In a glorious size 8

Available this evening for purchase in my Etsy Store!
