Dichroic glass earrings and pendant

Dichroic glass and silver

This past summer I took a class at Snow Farm-New England Craft on dichroic glass and finally finished the silver housing this autumn at the jewelry studio at the Cambridge Center for Adult Education.

Artist Statement

I began taking jewelry classes to learn how to solder so that I could construct exhibition supports for 3-D objects. I continue to take jewelry classes because it’s really fun!
