Sterilng silver circles pendant
Athena put a large clasp on for me as I have some trouble with my fingers. It’s perfect and I can put on and off myself. The necklace is beautiful and I absolutely love it. She is a very talented artist.

Handmade Sterling Silver Circles Pendant – One of a Kind, Organic Design
My one of a kind
This piece is breathtaking ! Fine stone in beautiful handset silver border, looks like an angel around my neck. Chain is fine and delicate enough, the setting looks like it floats around my neck. There is a bit of weight to the set yet it sits delicately but strong. I love it ❤️
Thank you for such talent and skill you share with those lucky to find you Athena !

Echoes of the Lake: Labradorite & Lapis Lazuli in Sterling Silver
Worth the second visit. Supreme service, not average items
We passed by the store quickly glancing, at an event. To rush to the vitamins and proteins bar. But the jewelled images I saw still lingered in my head. So I returned to take s closer look. I was not disappointed. The more I examined the pieces I could tell they were not the average beaded and organized gems. Gems are of unique colours. And quality. The spacing was done with immaculate precision and thought. And the pieces seemed to tell a timeless story. I chose to buy a necklace. To mark this escapade with my daughter to this women's event. But then owner came along and engaged in conversation. And as soon as she relinquished the matching pieces I was sold on them too. Needless to say. The pieces are one of a kind, but it's the stories that will also be timeless. I purchased an item. But me and my daughter have a story to.binf us forever!
