The Jeweler at Work
Here are some pictures of me at work. Often, so-called custom handmade jewelry involves a factory-made wax, or factory-made components soldered together. For me, handmade jewelry is really handmade! I do all the work myself, from carving the wax and casting, or fabricating components, to stone-setting, and finishing.

Here are some pictures of my studio where I work. jewelry torch
