Taking a coloristic approach to design, I like to combine some of the most unlikely of hues and successfully integrate unconventional ideas with the current fashion trends. The vibrant colors of the pearls change from season to season and I like to use the current trends/colors as a foundation for my color choices. The diverse color combinations of warm and cool tones seduce and entice the eyes and add drama to my collection.
All the jewelry I have designed is individually hand-crafted of only the finest hand chosen materials. Each piece is composed of some combination of the following ingredients: Pearls, Semi-Precious Stones, Swarovski Crystals, Mother-of-Pearl, various Shells and various Metals.
GF description
Gold-filled is defined as a layer of 10kt or better gold mechanically bonded under heat and pressure to another metal, then rolled or drawn to a given thickness. The quantity of the gold must be at least 1/20th of the item's total weight. The item must be marked as 10, 12 or 14kt gold-filled. Gold-filled is much thicker than gold plated, and gold-filled items are generally considered lifetime products.
SS description
Sterling silver is a white, highly reflective precious metal composed of 925 parts of pure silver and 75 parts alloy, usually copper. Copper provides the silver with sufficient hardness and wearing qualities, as pure silver is sometimes considered too soft to be used or worn everyday. Sterling silver is used in a wide variety of jewelry for a beautiful polished look.
Magnet Clasp
With many different types of magnetic clasps on the market, I choose to use Mag-Lok Magnetic Clasps. I’ve tested a bunch of clasps on the market and these are the strongest. (They come from the family who've invented and patented the clasp.) Using this clasp is SIMPLE & EASY to use. With SIMPLE PRYING, they are easy to remove when wanted, but very sturdy that the jewelry won’t fall off.(Through customer feed-back, the only exception to this is with infants; they will grasp for anything and they may be able to pull the jewelry right off.)

For centuries, Eastern Medicine (Oriental Medicine) and Europeans have used magnetic therapy to banish arthritis, back pain, fatigue, insomnia, migraines, asthma and other therapy ailments and pains.
Rediscovery of Magnetic Health
Magnetic therapy dates back to 800 B.C. when physicians in ancient Greece, Egypt, and China practiced it. It was described in the books of Homer, Hippocrates, and Aristotle.This ancient knowledge is now rediscovered, as people all over the world are searching for natural alternatives from modern medicine for healthy, pain-free, energetic lives.
History of Magnetism
The use of magnets to improve health isn't new. For more than 2,000 years, the effects of magnets on biological systems have been investigated and debated.During medieval times, lodestones were thought to have strong aphrodisiac powers, and magnetic "cures" for afflictions such as gout, arthritis and baldness flourished.
By the middle of the 18th century, durable high-power magnets were available throughout Europe. One young researcher, Franz Anton Mesmer, used magnets to treat patients with various illnesses, which led to a medical review in Paris that denounced his work as medical quackery. By the late 1800s, magnets became popular in America, with the Sears Roebuck mail-order catalog advertising magnetic boot insoles for 18 cents a pair.
Modern Times
Fast forward to 1997. While most consumers today won't stand for the dog-and-pony-show mentality that prevailed in earlier times, they'll still do almost anything to find relief from pain. Magnets are being used to ease discomfort associated with arthritis, fibromyalgia, post-polio syndrome and migraine headaches.
Magnetic therapy is accepted and widely used in Germany, Italy, England, France, Spain, Australia, and Russia. Results were released in November 1997 about a double-blind study done by Baylor College of Medicine at the Institute of Rehabilitation and Research (TIRR) in Houston, Texas."Seventy six percent of patients who received magnetic therapy reported a significant and quick decrease in arthritic pain and discomfort in the joints and muscles."This study was conducted by principle investigator Dr. Carlos Vallbona, MD, Professor. Co-principle investigator Dr. Carlton F. Hazlewood, Professor of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics."It is important to bring magnet therapy to the awareness of the interest lay public-particularly to those seeking help naturally." - Prof. Holger Hannemann, M.Sc Switzerland, 1990.
Millions of Americans use natural alternative therapy. Worldwide over 100 million people use magnetic therapy, 30 million in Japan alone, where 10 million people sleep on magnetic beds to counter the effects of stress, pain, fatigue, arthritis, sciatica, carpal tunnel, asthma, fibromyalgia, headaches, loss of cartilage, neck pain, back pain, tennis elbow, pinched nerve, high blood pressure, insomnia, cartilage, rheumatism, carpal tunnel and other therapy ailments.
