InterestsJEWELRY BY RJ
I have lived in New Mexico for many years and have been very fortunate in having to travel to Santa Fe quite often on business. During my visits, my love for Southwest style jewelry grew. I decided to try my hand at creating my own designs and had the oppurtunity to be trained in the craft by a Native American. I purchase my stones and supplies from the same distributors in Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and Gallup that the Native Americans purchase from. I am very particular about my craft and will not offer anything that I would not purchase myself. My designs have been described as Southwest Style, Santa Fe Style, and Native American Style. Native Americans have complimented me on my designs, and I regard this as the highest compliment I could ever receive.
I will offer other items that I did not create, but I will identify these in the item listing. These will be items that I have purchased over the years and they will usually be anything set in silver.
