Private Stash

Here's my left hand. These are the rings I am currently wearing always.  From left to right:
*Skull Ring- from Anomaly's "Bones" collection
*Diamond Solitaire Ring- My engagement ring sized down to fit my pinkie finger.  The diamond is from my Grandmother's Wedding Ring. I made it into the one you see here set with mini diamonds all around it and on the band.
*Snake Ring- My wedding band. I made it.
*Mint Triangle Ring- got it from a kick ass jewelry designer named Virginie Millefiore. I met her at a young designer's market held on Saturday and Sunday's here in NYC on Mulberry Street. You can find her jewelry here.
*Diamond Micro Pave Ring- Got it for myself as my salary bonus a few years back. This is a joke as I employ myself.  I really just bought myself the ring.
*Pink Sapphire eternity band- I got it on ebay.

I spent today looking all over the beading district of N.Y.C for non-precious metal chains.  The search was a success! In the works is all of Anomaly's Collections remade in base metal for more affordable prices than we have now with our precious metal options.  I have always wanted my work to be accessible to as many people as possible. With the crazy prices of silver and gold I was finding that tons of people were getting priced out.  In years past here wasn't cool and well made chains and findings in brass and stainless steel. With the demand from the wholesale industry for affordable metals increasing I am finding that I can now find these cool and well made products.  I can't wait to get it all made and up online for you all to see.

New Birdie FINISHED!! Here's a pic of the bird I have been working on done in metal. This one is brass on a gunmetal chain. I will be getting these guys up for sale on Etsy and my Webshop next week. In brass they will be $140.

     Hello hello! Wow, 2 years fly by when you are the one not posting on your own blog. Well, what really happened was that I had my first kid 2 years ago and boy do they take up time. Blogging was the first thing to go but now that Lulu (my kid) is way more self sufficient I have more time for Anomaly and THE BLOGGING HAS RETURNED! I will be trying to post a few times a week about all things Anomaly including important stuff like new jewelry on our website and what sales are coming up. There will also be talk of other jewelers I love, running a small business, a look inside my studio and the craft of jewelry, my private collection of jewelry, and Anomaly jewelry in progress among other things.
     I will start with a small peak inside my studio. This is the upper left hand corner of the main worktable in my space.
