I most typically make these or similar pieces of sterling silver. Upon request, I've made some of gold. If interested in options other than silver, please feel free to inquire, either by telephone (859) 448-1071 or by email, in which case please include reference number in the subject line.

The Italian word "conchiglia" refers to a shell, more specifically what's referred to as the conch shell in English. It has a most beautiful form as a pendant which is accentuated by the application of bronze on the inside of the pendant.

This creste di gallo (rooster's comb) is very simple and understated...very natural as a pendant.

Reference code: mach3-crestedigallo

This necklace is very simple and elegant...composed of a quite a number of elbow macaronis and miniature silver cheese wedges, it's both playful and serious. Many variations on essentially this theme are possible. Different numbers and specific locations of cheese wedges,highly symmetrical, more randomly placed, other types of pasta...the possibilities seem endless. When inquiring, please indicate the desired length of the necklace.

Less boistrous than the necklace seen immediately above, the one to the left was made of a strand of beads with symmetrically placed shell macaronis. Again, the locations of the shells could easily be redefined and/or other versions of pasta could be included. Please indicate the desired length of the necklace.
