When I'm making jewelry or searching for treasures, I'm very happy. (Oui, that's me, pictured at right, taking a break from the flea-markets of Paris. Salut!!)
I have a few areas of focus for my jewelry:
Metalworking with sterling silver, brass, copper, nickel silver and bronze.
Hand-formed fine silver and bronze clay charms and pendants.
Etched copper and nickel silver charms and pendants.
Necklaces, earrings, pins and bracelets made with the metals mentioned above and all embellished with beads, pearls, semi-precious stones, Czech glass, handmade lampwork beads and Swarovski crystals. Need a message stamped on metal - no problem! And, throw in a few found objects or treasures from my vintage jewelry stash, and you have an original MaryO Design to call your own.
During the last few years, I've been so fortunate to have learned from some of the very best jewelry artists in the United States. These incredibly talented teachers include ... Thomas Mann, Annie Morgan, Nina Bagley, Celie Fago, CeCe Wire, Mary Hettmansperger, Jane Wynn, Richard Salley and Susan Lenart Kazmer.
Since the beginning of time, humans have been adorning themselves. And jewelry lets us all show our personality one adornment at a time. Of course, some of us love to "layer it on" and really let our personalities shine!!!
A bientot!
Dreaming of Paris and hope to post new photos one day soon,
