Iceopals Jewelry

 
Everything is custom made.  Dreamed of and created.  Carol makes it all.   She cuts the stones and fabricates from scratch.  Eclectic.   That seems to fit best.  One of a kind, and never repetitive. 

The business began in 1991, with stained glass being the focus.  Sometime around 1998, jewelry entered the picture, and it hasn't changed since.  The first stone to ever be cut in house was Australian opal.  Opals and American turquoise have been favorites.  As far as style is concerned, again, eclectic seems to describe it.  The theory, as artists go, is that we are supposed to settle into some theme that can be used to identify us.   I guess I will never be judged to fit a theme. 

Ah well...
 

Stamped pieces are made using a variety of Navajo and other custom made stamps.  Antique dies are patterns for modern creations.  Stone inlay and stone in stone pieces add variety to settings.   And carvings!   Well, stone carving takes a very long time, but the results can set jewelry off like nothing else.  Sterling silver, fine silver, gold, or a mix.  Variety is the spice of life!

Please take a look.   Contact for purchase or to have a melding of the minds about something in particular that you would like.  Some of my favorite pieces are shown on the next several pages, hopefully to inspire you, and when we are done you will have something that is truly a family heirloom.
