I have so many favorites that it’s hard to choose my top favorites, but I’ll give it a try. Some of the ones that I choose may not be the popular ones that I sell so it does not reflect on sales or what you as a customer may or may not like. This will just go over a few of my personal likes.
The first one on my list is this round silver ring with a very intricate knot that is broken up by a bud like pattern. I love how the bud or flowering bud breaks out and sits in the middle of the Celtic Knot. The simple pattern stands out from the highly detailed weave that the knot creates. The next cool thing I like about it is the inner edges of the ring and how the simple grooved twist adds to the overall design and look of the ring. Although hidden when worn, it’s the idea of knowing it’s there and how cool it makes the ring be. This ring I named Celtic Pride because I feel the emerging or flowering bud represents a sense of pride coming out with the roots of Celtic culture and way of life at it’s deep roots base from the inside out.

This one is another favorite that I love. Yes, another Celtic knot ring. This is so basic. To me it has a clean look. The knot comes out form the ring a little bit so you can feel the knot on your finger. It doesn’t hurt, but reminds you of why you wanted to have this ring in the first place. A wedding ring that reminds you you are married. How about that. It’s a wide ring which also shows off the pattern very well. The knot also has a U shape profile so the black in the ring is a more gradual faded look. I like the old world look and this gives a nice feel to it. Just something I’d enjoy wearing allowing others to see my choice in style.

Another ring I love is this really wide Laotion inspired ring. It’s probably the widest ring I’ve made, but very comfortable. It’s comfort fit and feels so smooth to slip on. It looks thin from the edges, but packs a lot of details into it. The buds are a traditional design element that I’ve seen so many times in textiles and building, etc. while I lived over in Laos. I wanted to incorporate it into a ring that could be worn. I feel this does justice to show off this really neat pattern with the most 3d effect I could give it. The black background really make the design pop. It’s just one of my favorite designs.

I can keep going on and on so I’ll just do a few more. This really is so hard since I love so many. I made this with the idea of pressing leaves into the metal. Although I did not use actual leaves to make the impressions technology has allowed me to still express myself in new ways. I was able to use computer software to take a leaf image and press it into the CAD design file. I then am able to make a wax from it and cast it into this beautiful ring. The leaves also flow to the inside of the ring which makes this design so unique. I love all those leaves and how down to earth it makes me feel. One with nature all the way. :)

Here is another really cools ring. I call this the quadrilateral ring. It’s got these shapes that are all different all the way around the ring. They are not repeated and the unique pattern is so cool. The square rings are so comfortable to wear. I also love the corners of the inside and edges of the ring. The pattern there also gives this ring an overall great look. This one was fun to design.

Paradise California has a special place in my heart. I grew up there and it saddens me to think of the disaster of the Camp Fire that literally wiped the town away. Although I don’t live there anymore, I have family still there that went through all the pain of the fire. Even for those still there it can’t be easy with nothing around or the constant reminder of what happened or no friends or places to visit, or the way of life as you knew it all gone. The rest of my family will soon move away from there, but I’ll still in my heart be connected. When i go visit Chico California to visit more family I think I’ll always make a trip back to Paradise to see the progress of what the New Paradise will become.
This Pendant is of the sign as you entered into the town. I designed wings lifting it up as this has so much meaning to it. I love this piece of jewelry and wear it often. So not only do I like the design it has personal meaning behind it too.
