Tesoro Design

I have the privilege to live in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia and I have also been fortunate to have lived in India, Dubai and Mozambique for extended periods.  My distinctive jewelry creations resonate with the visual delights I have seen:  the exuberant colors of India, the timeless gravity of the African landscape, and the sinuous symmetry of the Arabic decorative arts.   I work mainly in sterling silver, semi-precious gemstones, and Swarovski elements to personally create and construct every piece. They are unique in the purest sense as no design is ever repeated.

While my original designs were mostly wire work and strung crystal and stones, I have recently embarked on a new adventure - the world of metal smithing.  This has opened up a whole new way for me to use sterling silver, copper and brass in my designs by adding texture, shape, perspective and depth to each creation.  I hope you enjoy the journey with me.

I have also taught jewelry making to small groups and my products have been sold in several stores and in juried and group shows as well as in many weekend markets.
