Only
Silver began 1984 following my apprenticeship with a local
silversmith in Manchester, Vermont. Over the last 27 years
my design philosophy evolved to match my upbringing. Born
and raised on a rural farm in Pawlet, Vermont with seven
brothers and sisters, I have always appreciated simple,
classic, and timeless design, and that is reflected in the
jewelry I create.
I personally design and handcraft each
item of jewelry. Each piece is made in my workshop, from
either wire or plate, using various methods of cutting,
filing, soldering, and hammering. All stones that I use are
semi-precious, obtained from various parts of the world. A
majority of my pieces are handcrafted from sterling silver
metal, however, a limited number are gold-filled or 14k
Gold. A piece may be modified to your liking by contacting
Only Silver. Each piece is hand buffed for a clean, high
polish finish.
My goal is provide high quality jewelry
at affordable prices, in a variety of styles anyone and any
age can enjoy. I currently reside with my husband Bill in
Arlington, Vermont and Punta Gorda Florida. I am a member
of the Vermont Handcrafters and am very active in the
community.
