Elana's Brooch
Elana wanted a hand made brooch for her mother and wasn't sure what kind of style she wanted so I made three different styles for her to choose from... She chose the first one on this list with a faceted cushion cut Garnet the metal was fabricated out of copper and riveted the brunch with sterling silver rivets ....and I added a bluish patina... To protect the patina I sprayed it with a Matt Acrylic sealant.

Working with Maria was such a pleasure. I wanted to make a brooch for my mother as a thank you present. Although I didn't have a drawing for Maria, I had a few images of the style of jewelry she typically wears. Maria made sketches of several ideas and was very receptive to my feedback about what I liked and did not like about the designs. Not only did she come up with a gorgeous design that my mother absolutely loved, but when the brooch arrived it was completely gift wrapped!
I would absolutely recommend working with Maria for your next project.
