CUSTOM JEWELRY- at
TAMPICO
Welcome to our catalogue
of Custom Jewelry.
Our design philosophy is to create jewelry that is comfortable to wear and suitable
for everyday use. Part of our focus is to create jewelry that is a synthesis, of the
elements and styles, of antique and modern jewelry.
Important elements of our jewelry designs are:
1. Comfortable: Our earrings are
very light weight and can be made in a length that suit you. Rings are smoothly
shaped so that you are
not constantly reminded of their presence.
2. Durable: Most of our styles are
shown in white gold. White gold is the hardest of precious metals. Producing
jewelry in white gold
requires greater skill and craftsmanship but we believe that it is well worth the
effort. (Most styles can be made in yellow gold).
3. Balance: We think that the color
and shape of a fine stone should be complemented by excellent quality of design and
craftsmanship in
the metal work.
4. Quality: We use ancient coins
that are in fine condition. Our mounting technique does not damage the coin.
We use original intaglios
not metal copies.
5. Active lifestyle: We use bezel
settings to hold stones in place. We do not use prong settings on rings.
With a prong setting there is a
risk of losing or damaging the stone.
I hope you enjoy shopping this site. Give me a call if you need help.
