About Sarah Amendola created Mockingbird Lane Artistries:

“At Mockingbird Lane Artistries, we are dedicated to crafting jewelry that celebrates the macabre; merging the eerie charm of Halloween, the solemnity of Victorian Era coffin antiques, and the serene beauty of gravestones with gemstones and metal-work.

We employ the processes of electro-forming and photo-grammetry to capture the intricate details of gravestones and antiques, transforming history into miniature wearable art; bringing unique artistry to life.”

About Michelle Arsenault created Michelle Ink Designs:

In 2007, I stumbled across a fascinating medium – precious metal clay fine silver. With my own hands, a tiny kiln and through the moment of combustion – I began a new foray into fine silver jewelry.

“al*che*mist – a person who transforms or creates something through a seemingly magical process”

My gypsy blood inspires me to build silver treasures that tell stories and are constructed to carry these stories for generations.

In 2017 I also began teaching, sharing the fascination of the limitless possibilities with this amazing material. I share my own unique blend of technique collected through years of manipulation and experimentation.

Always open to the next idea, I delight in the endless potential, the next vision, waiting within the fine silver clay.

Personal (jewelry) and small home decor, a tale in silver for any reader.
