Marie grew up in the diamond district of New York City and took an interest in jewelry at an early age. 

Unfortunately she was not able to pursue that interest until later in life.  She was always a crafter and one day decided she needed a badge holder for her Government job.  Handmade jewelry was the thing, she was hooked! 

That was the first of many pieces to follow.  Education was not formal for this endeavor but classes at various beading locations were taken, magazine articles read, and internet classes were taken.  The ultimate requirement for this art is patience because things don’t always go the way you think they should.  The results however, are always stunning.

Each piece is guaranteed for 90 days and you can bring it back any time during Marie’s lifetime and she will fix it for a small fee.  All items are made from the finest materials Marie can find.  She handpicks all the gemstones.  Crystals are purchased only from reputable wholesalers.  When you purchase a piece from Marie you are getting a one of a kind first class item.
