What metals make up the jewelry?

The primary metal in my work is pewter. It has historically been a catch-all term for tin alloys, but I specifically use tin, silver, copper, and bismuth, some of which I alloy myself! Most importantly, I want to make it absolutely clear that my metals contain no lead, no antimony, and no cadmium.

My pewter alloys wear very similarly to sterling silver, the main differences being that it is darker than silver (huge plus in my book) and has a slightly lower hardness and melting point so I am able to get the really lovely sculptural and textured elements. 

Necklace chains, clasps, and connecting pieces are all stainless steel, and earring hooks are either stainless steel or sterling silver (which will be stated on each product page). If you have any specific metal needs for earrings, I am happy to accommodate, simply send me an email! Speaking of:

Do you do custom work?

I do! Custom pieces are some of my favorites to make. Shoot me an email through my contact page and let's chat! Certain pieces that are not resizable can be made custom for a similar cost of the original piece. Please refer to my shop policies page, linked above, for details. Let's make art together! 

I do not charge a specific custom fee for custom work but extra costs may be included if I need to acquire extra materials and whatnot. 

How do I find my ring size?

Click here for a video how to find your own ring size at home. You can also purchase a ring gauge online. Keep in mind that your fingers change size at different times depending on temperature or how you use your hands! You may have to change which finger you wear your rings throughout the day.

Where is your jewelry available? 

I am based in San Diego, California! I currently stock at Sea Hive Station in Point Loma and La Loupe Vintage in Normal Heights. I vend frequently at flea markets around the San Diego area, occasionally traveling for festivals and events. Besides that, here on my website!
