My taste in jewelry is eclectic. Some of the pieces presented here I have made from collected beads from countries I have lived and worked in around the world. Many of the beads are from Yemen, Turkmen beads from Afghanistan, Uzbekistan and Pakistan. Other necklaces I have purchased in wonderful suqs around the world. Since I lived and worked in Yemen, Jordan, Central Asia and South Asia for many years, including Afghanistan, I was able to collect and buy special pieces not always available to the casual tourists. I hope you enjoy looking.
