International Shipping
Due to the variation of expense and complexity involved in shipping jewelry to other countries, we can't offer a simple way to buy the jewelry with the "Buy it Now" button. Instead, email us and we will research any prohibitions or restrictions against sending gemstones or silver to your country. If we can ship our items to you, we will then send you an invoice for the cost of the item, which includes shipping, registered mail, insurance, etc.
You will have 24-hours to send us the money requested on the invoice via PayPal, during which time we will hold the item for you. Any item not paid for in that time will not be held any longer.
Please be aware that some countries do not allow the importation of jewelry, gemstones or silver. Also, please be aware of any customs or duty taxes your country may impose on the importation of jewelry. We will not undervalue our jewelry on the customs forms, and we are not responsible for duty taxes.
About my jewelry creations:
All items are created using genuine semi-precious stones, with .925 sterling silver findings, settings, wire and beads. Each item is one-of-a-kind; I never replicate my work. I strive for unique color combinations with graceful rhythms of the beads. Stones have held a fascination for me since I was very young, and I feel natural stone jewelry, with all the stone's flaws and inclusions, hold much more warmth and humanity than something that is supposedly "perfect". Each pendant, each little bead, is like a miniature abstract painting created by the most incredible artist of all, Nature. I just curate them for a little wearable exhibit. :)
