About this Product
These elegant handcrafted earrings feature layered Capiz shell with a bronze heart at their center, creating a delicate yet earthy aesthetic. Accented with rich 6mm Kyanite beads, these earrings exude a sense of depth and natural beauty. The gold-filled wire adds warmth and durability, complementing the organic textures of the shell and stone.
Kyanite is known for its striking blue hues and is believed to promote balance, enhance communication, and encourage tranquility. As with all natural gemstones, each bead has its own unique variations and natural beauty marks, ensuring that no two pairs are exactly alike.
Please note that items are photographed up close to highlight their intricate details. I strive to present colors as accurately as possible, but keep in mind that color may vary slightly depending on monitor settings and individual perception.

Meet the Maker
A retired science teacher with 31 years of experience, I now channel my passion for discovery and creativity into my handcrafted jewelry business. Based in Ventura, CA, I live with my husband, Mark, and our two beloved cats, Luna and Bagel. After years of teaching, I’ve embraced this exciting chapter of artistic exploration, crafting jewelry that reflects my transformation from educator to artist.
I began making jewelry for myself and my family over 15 years ago and quickly discovered the calming, meditative joy of the creative process. What started as a personal hobby soon grew into a thriving business, with my pieces finding homes at local markets and beyond. Experimenting with color, texture, and materials keeps me inspired, and I’m always eager to learn new techniques and refine my craft.
My designs blend artistry with craftsmanship, often incorporating the warmth and character of bronze and copper alongside gemstones, glass, and other carefully chosen materials. Each necklace, bracelet, and pair of earrings tells a story, balancing traditional techniques with innovative artistry. My distinctive acrylic pour collection further reflects my love of bold color and fluid, abstract designs.

How it’s Made
My creative process is fluid and intuitive, often taking unexpected turns. The final piece rarely resembles my initial vision. Instead of following a set pattern, I embrace trial and error, arranging materials directly on the wire to refine spacing and balance, whether I’m crafting a necklace, bracelet, or pair of earrings.
I start by gathering stones, pendants, other components—often without a clear plan—and contemplating their combinations. Sometimes the initial arrangement works, but more often, it inspires entirely new ideas.
On lucky days, a design comes together effortlessly, but usually, my process is an evolving exploration guided by the materials themselves.
