I am a studio-based artisan specializing in the precision faceting and carving of gemstones. My work encompasses a range of styles, from traditional and modern designs to unique, one-of-a-kind creations.
I find joy and satisfaction in the journey of transforming a rough stone into a polished masterpiece. This creative process involves exploring ideas, refining techniques, and continuously developing my skills. Each piece I finish has been carefully considered and given due attention and respect.
I invite you to browse my collection and if you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment to view my gems and carvings, please feel free to contact me. I do take commissions and custom orders.
