Standing in Oregon's rugged and soul dazzling high desert, rounded lava stone in my hand, it came to me; combining time immemorial stone and glass with ancient gold leaf would powerfully express the raw, bold elegance, strength and grace reflected by so many women today. A woman who enjoys being noticed as both gracious and grounded, is exactly who my line of jewelry and home décor is for. Hello and Welcome! I'm very happy to answer questions you may have, and will gladly chat with you in messages or meet you on my Zoom video link. About my Technique on Glass and Stone - As an artist and gilder, I employ Verre Eglomisé technique, which is the art of painting and gilding precious metal leaf on the reverse side of the glass. Designs are engraved into the gold or silver leaf and then combined with glass and enamel paints on the back side of my glass bowls, table tops, and décor pieces. I also am gilding stone with gold leaf for my unique and elegant jewelry designs, and have custom commissions for special occasions such as concerts, weddings, anniversaries, and holiday gifts. Looking forward, and thank you for your appreciation of my art. Jan
