Motifs from ancient times and shapes from the plant world inspire me to design. My collection of artisan jewelry is growing and taking shape, but will also continue to change. Sketching in advance is only a small part of my process. Most of it happens behind my workbench. When I make one piece of jewelry with my hands, I'm designing the next piece in my head.

Through the use of mostly 18 carat warm yellow gold, my work gets that warm Mediterranean look that I love so much.  

Contributing to a healthy future for the planet and its people is important to me and that is why I work with Fairmined gold and silver.
