Jewelry

Each design begins with an authentic piece of river-found pottery or glass, cleaned and carefully drilled by hand but never reshaped, so it stays just as the river left it. From subtle everyday necklaces to statement pieces, no two will ever be the same. When a piece sells, it’s gone for good.
