All jewellery is handmade and shipped from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and therefore is exempt from tariffs for USA customers under CUSMA, the free-trade agreement. I always ship with a certificate of origin for customs.

Got it!

*Caveat on using the term “recycled gold”:

While I am very careful to source my precious metals only from SCS® certified suppliers (SCS® stands for Supply Chain Sustainability; they are the global leader in the field of sustainability standards and third-party certification). Most of my precious metals suppliers are also members of the Responsible Jewellery Council. However, I want to point out that ‘recycling gold' is not what is commonly understood by the term.

True recycling avoids things ending up in landfills. Gold, of course, wouldn’t.

Instead, gold is simply melted, refined and repurposed.

Although SCS® certified refineries must maintain auditable records of their suppliers, there are loopholes globally which make it very easy for gold from unregulated and/or illegal sources to enter their supply chain.

This makes even 'certified recycled' gold untraceable.

I am extremely delighted to return to Vancouver again this week for the wonderful and fantastic CircleCraft Market.

Being the feature artist for the show last year was completely delightful – it was amazing to see my work in giant size on the sides of busses and on posters all through the Vancouver transit system – Thank You again, CircleCraft, for this honour!

The subway ads were particularly stynning

This 18k yellow gold Onefooter ring is set with a natural unheated sapphire

I was on the Canadian West Coast just a few months ago for the delightful Harmony Arts Festival in West Vancouver.  There was much interest there, particularly in my solid 18k gold work – I am extravagantly generous in using gold, and this refusal to hold back was much appreciated this summer. I will be bringing many such pieces with me, so come on over that bridge, WestVan, and see me downtown in the Convention Centre West.

Along with an extended offering of my usual lines, I am bringing some exciting new versions of my Onefooter Series. I have been experimenting with setting different shapes and colours of coloured gemstones, and I am completely tickled pink with the results.

Some of the new Onefooter rings with gemstones I will be bringing with me to CircleCraft (left to right): trillion cut garnet, princess cut pink sapphire, natural emerald, oval imperial topaz, and garnet baguette

Come see for yourself! Use promo code CCD when you buy tickets online ahead of the show ici.    And definitely come early for the best selection!

Show Hours at Downtown’s Convention Centre West:

        Wednesday November 9th     10am – 9pm
        Thursday November 10th       10am – 9pm
        Friday November 11th              10am – 9pm
        Saturday November 12th        10am – 7pm
        Sunday November 13th            10am – 5pm

Then I get straight on a plane to take the red-eye home to Halifax, to get ready for the NSDCC Designer Craft Market at the Cunard Centre November 18-20. I love being able to stretch from Coast to Coast like that.
Makes me feel mighty  : )
