Jewelry with a story
Each statement piece I make in the Ritornello Collection comes from part of a musical instrument that is no longer able to be repaired. They provide you with a tangible reminder to slow down and take a look at the unnoticed wonders of the world around us, and that each of our stories are connected in unexpected ways. An added bonus is that each piece acts as a fun conversation starter to help you find your next new friend!
"Ritornello" means "little return" in Italian. What better way to describe transforming a piece of a broken instrument into a thing of beauty once more!
Other Offerings
Inspired by Nature
In addition to musical instrument jewelry, I reclaim the silver left over from those projects to make nature inspired jewelry such as the Rivers of Texas series using sterling silver and ribbon turquoise from the Royston mining district in Nevada.
