So named because the shape reminds me of an arrowhead, this gorgeous Azurite / Malachite stone was hand cut and polished before being wrapped in sterling silver and hung from a Greek leather cord.

The entrancing colors of tropical waters were inspired by an upcoming cruise. The nautical theme is reinforced by a seashell and captain's wheel.

Wow - this necklace is a knockout for anyone who likes southwestern styles. A one-of-a-kind handmade sterling silver pendant with a coyote sitting on turquoise stones howling at the moon hangs from a necklace of silver, labradorite, Sleeping Beauty turquoise, pearls, black spinel, and apatite.

These black onyx frames make wonderful settings for unique pendants. So far I have created one with a handmade glass lampwork bead and one with faceted gemstones on hand-twisted sterling silver wire. I look forward to working on more variations of this design.

Atlantis......a mythical ocean paradise is what I imagine when I see this necklace. The sea comes alive in a stunning, large lampwork focal piece handmade by artist Katie Green. She used special, highly sought-after glasses called Kronos and Gaia which contain high levels of silver, creating brilliant visual effects. I made it into a sterling silver and lapis lazuli pendant, hanging from a necklace richly laden with top-grade lapis lazuli, pearls, sodalite, apatite, rainbow flourite, and sterling silver.

This is the bracelet I created in honor of my own cat, Kittyhawk. I used black onyx, Czech glass, and real jet for the sleek, deep black of her coat. She has a few, barely visible white hairs on her chest, so I used just a couple of pieces of black onyx that had natural white inclusions in it.
Her clear, bright green eyes are matched almost perfectly by the rainbow flourite centerpiece and the faceted prehenite accents. The clasp is decorated by a round dangle created by wrapping prehenite gemstones around a sterling base by hand, using super fine-gauge sterling silver wire.
The result is a stylish bracelet that looks fashionable in any situation while celebrating a very delightful little black cat! I can make one for your pet too!

This necklace brings to mind images of Egypt and Cleopatra; to me it looks like an ancient treasure you'd see in a museum, lovingly preserved through the ages. And who knows? Maybe one day centuries from now it will be!

Dzi beads are patterned stone beads drenched in mystery and lore. The original Dzi beads were of unknown origin, and ancient Tibetins believed the beads to have been dropped to earth by the gods.

I just love this piece....it managaes to appear both luxurious and rustic. The Azurite/Malachite and copper compliment each other perfectly.

The bead has rivers of blue running through a silvered tan background that reminds me of a clear, cold river running through the desert under a perfectly clear summer sky.

The name Distinction Jewelry represents my goal in jewelry design; to make pieces that have an air of distinction, and are distinctively different. I make beautiful jewelry that will not be available anywhere else, and often cannot even be duplicated due to the one of a kind nature of the materials used.
Jewelry can be about beauty and beauty alone. Many of my pieces exist to adorn the wearer with something beautiful and rare. But the jewelry we cherish is often that with a deeper personal meaning, and those are the pieces I strive to create. Perhaps it reminds us of a loved one, or symbolizes a character from a movie who gives us strength. Maybe it symbolizes a favorite natural haven, or an ideal or a fantasy we wish to hold close. These are just a few of my own inspirations when creating jewelry.
