2009 Christmas Craft & Gift Show - Spanish Fork

We'd like to thank everyone that came to visit us at the Christmas Craft and Gift Show in Spanish Fork. Even with all of the football fans who had to leave the exciting BYU vs. Utah game, we met a lot of new friends in Utah County. Many of you we see in the Spring, when we come to buy at the Gem and Mineral Society's annual show which is also at the tennis courts. For anyone who wants to learn more about Utah rocks -- visit this show in March. There are some great members who are always ready to share stories and lots of wonderful displays every year.

Garnet and sterling silver beads bisect this heart with a large central ruby. The Rubian Fuchsite was wrapped in a mix of sterling and 14 karat gold filled wire. Half of the wires have been twisted to add additional texture and visual interest.

Sand Dollar

SOLD

One of the more unusual finds from our travels this year was the discovery of the fossilized sand dollar. This piece measures 2.25" x 1.75." and has been set so the ancient stone is the star.
A simple setting of contrasting metals was chosen. A single 14 karat gold filled wire circles this fossilized sand dollar while sterling silver wire forms the remainder of the bezel.

Tray of Stones

This last year Robert was able to cut a wide variety of stones that can either be wrapped in wire or set into sterling silver settings. The hearts and stones in the silver settings in the bottom two rows are ready to wear - you can customize your design on any of the remaining stones. Most of these materials are from the Western US, so you can find a little bit of your home state as well as a beautiful piece of jewelry.
