All of the below completed jewelry were made with rocks Kimberly (my wife) and I collected.  I then cut and polished them into cabochons.  All of the silver work is 100% my work.  I start with raw fine silver bullion and melt it down with 7.5% copper to make sterling silver ingots.  I make those ingots into sheet and wire, making every component of the piece myself.  Most silversmiths buy plate and wire but I like to do it all!  The only thing I did not do is mine the silver!
