 Sterling Gold Leaf Necklace
Judith Neugebauer These beautiful pieces are hand done by Judith Neugebauer. Using sterling silver and 23karat gold leaf, she designs pieces with a slightly Asian flair. A hard lacquer finish protects the pieces, allowing for maintenance free wear. Judith also works with oxidized sterling, providing a “black and white” effect beneath the gold.

 Carriage Clock
Greg Mason Arizona artist Greg Mason is taking recycling to a new level. 40 years as a farmer ingrained in him the need to use, reuse and not throw things away. His assemblage clocks are influenced by culture and past art movements, but each piece reflects his own creativity. This whimsical compilation of old bits and pieces is no exception. A wheeled carriage for telling time; resplendent with vacuum tubes, a dangling earring, trumpet-like candlestick, and mini box camera just to name a few of the oddities that please the eye and tickle the funny bone. A battery operated clock takes this artistic assemblage to a level of functionality.
