Because every computer monitor, pad and screen may be calibrated differently, the color you see may be slightly different.
*Yes, we are making a fuss. This is real, natural, genuine and increasingly rare turquoise. It is NOT dyed howlite or magnesite. We do use those for some of our jewelry, but we are careful about representing our stones as accurately as possible. We also source only from reputable, knowledgeable gem sellers, many of whom we have worked with for a number of years.
Rivendell Rocks Sedona
Meet the Maker
We are a mother and son team who love to work together creating elegant, stimulating jewelry. Our designs are a collaborative process as Tony and Suzanne work together to create each piece, emphasizing originality, grace, and elegance with a desire to convey our joy in the process. We enjoy working with gemstones and minerals of all types, combining them with metals, crystals and pearls. We are inspired by the natural scenery that surrounds us in Sedona, and images from our travels, by our Faith and our Country.
How it’s Made
Our designs begin with nature. We are inspired by the many varied gemstones, minerals and "rocks" that are available. The colors, textures, matrixes, polish, and shape are all fantastic. We add metal, crystals and glass to the combination. Then we find inspiration from the scenery that surrounds us in Sedona, in the fabulous colors of the desert Southwest. In our travels, the colors, textures and the fall of light on water, the tropical colors found in Hawaii, the Caribbean bring us ideas for design. And finally, the gorgeous coastline of California, from beaches to redwood forests can influence our designs.
From there, we seek to create balanced, complementary and light weight jewelry that is comfortable, fashionable, individualistic, and elegant. We mix in a little fun, add a splash of joy, and we have our designs.
We carefully source all our components from reputable dealers. We use 49 strand braided acrylic covered stainless steel wire for our beaded necklaces and clasp bracelets. We use Nymo nylon thread for seed bead jewelry. Ear wires are either sterling silver or stainless steel. We state which within the description. We use wire guards and crimp covers for a professional look and prefer the more elegant lobster clasp for closure.
