North American jet- Native American Navajo and Pueblo tribes of New Mexico were using regionally mined jet for jewellery and the ornamentation of weapons when early Spanish explorers reached the area in the 1500s. Today these jet deposits are known as Acoma jet, for the Acoma Pueblo. Enormous coal deposits characterise the San Juan Basin of New Mexico and this geology is closely related to jet deposits mined in the Henry Mountains of Utah and the Front Range of El Paso County, Colorado.

STONES-
I source all my stones from a small selection of knowledgeable and reputable dealers and mines.
All my silver pieces are very limited, should the item you choose be out of stock at the time of ordering please contact me to discuss options. As the stones and beads within this piece are natural and hand cut, please expect slight variation in shade and shape. Traditional jewellery making techniques are used to make all pieces- piercing, shaping, stamping, soldering, stone setting and polishing etc are all done by me and by hand. No mass made cookie cut production here. Each piece will be different to the next and this is what makes every piece unique. I have an ever changing supply of stones and therefore custom orders are possible. Prices vary due to the carat, type and rarity of the stone, also due to the amount and weight of sterling used in each piece.
