Recently, as a result of the guild It's Better Handmade promotion of our artists, I've had a chance to begin to know some wonderful artists. One day, I stopped by the shop of MaggieMays Fine Jewelry on Artfire. I love the pieces in MaggieMay's shop. For example, how about these - Mystic Diamond Drop Earrings .

| Topaz Diamond Earrings |
These earrings are beautiful in color and the design is elegant. I just want to
stop and look at those beautiful earrings all day, but I was drawn further
in to view more of the shop because there are so many wonderful pieces. And there are stories behind every piece which describe the metals and stones used and the inspiration for the pieces.

A husband and wife team, Margaret Pierson and her husband work from their home studio. The team at MaggieMays are not only fine craftsmen, but Margaret also writes two fascinating blogs Maggie Mays Artfire Blog and MaggieMays Blogger with discussions of gemstones and techniques as well as fun videos and features which include those of other artists and the crafts they pursue.
MaggieMay's is a strong and positive supporter of handmade and those who create and also very knowledgeable about the craft and materials in which she
loves to work. I particularly enjoyed the Artfire Shop blog post entitled Russian Chrome Diopside - What Is It? Where Does It Come From? In this article, I learned much about Diopside, a rare green gemstone (that I had never heard of before I read this article), but which rivals the emerald for beauty and which is found only in Siberia and mined only during the summer months since the
extreme temperatures in Siberia create such difficult mining conditions.

You won't regret taking the time to stop by MaggieMays Fine Jewelry.

Lol! I have to say that this is the first time I've heard of a "jewels horse", but I like the term very much and think that MaggieMays would be a place that would create a horse like this since she has so many beauties. Love your comment and thank you :-)
DeleteMaybe some of you are wondering if the pictures click through to MaggieMays shop. The captions do click through but I couldn't figure out how to get the pictures themselves to click through. If some of you have a tutorial comment here would much appreciate to know how.
