Soutache jewelry found me one day in a local shop where I discovered a book about it while looking for something else.  It haunted my dreams and imagination for months before I surrendered. Now it is my passion.

My handmade jewelry is based on the revival of techniques created over 500 years ago using soutache braid (aka Russian braid). Originally used for decoration on draperies and furniture, women adapted it for use on all types of garments. The techniques have been handed down through generations of women who incorporated designs from tribal, oriental and other folk traditions. My work is inspired by ancient cultures, dreams, and past life memories.


I use a combination of natural stones, beads, soutache braid, findings and whatever else inspires me.

Custom orders available
If you see something you like but want it in a different color or want multiples (for a wedding party), I can do it. Contact me via email.

  "That's quite remarkable work. I see stars and planets, zodiacs, universal wombs of life and nature, seeds and plants, wisdom, mystical grace, smiley faces. All of your aspects in display. And the photos and web site are beautiful, even perfect creations. Stunning.

"Congratulations" is too small a term. I feel joyful for you."
