Gloria Adams - Showing Artist
I have always been fascinated by the beauty God placed in the rocks and minerals of the earth. I also love jewelry; I love to buy it, I love to wear it; I buy my clothes to match my jewelry. In 2002, I bought my first wire wrap pendant; its style was different fron others I'd seen, and it matched my personality perfectly! The stones were polished to a high luster, and the gold wire seemed to magnify the beauty of the sparkling stone. I was hooked. Since then, it's been my mission and delight to create wire jewelry using polished stones and gemstones. My husband Steve cuts my stones for me, so our jewelry is a family affair.
