Up comming events

Joan Cloud Blackford
 
Maui Joanie Jewelry  



Fun, vintage inspired, collectable jewelry featuring brass findings and antique stampings, USA made, many from companies over 100 years old still using original dies.  Pressed glass and crystal beads from the Czech Republic, with  amethyst, garnet, turquoise, chalcedony and other semi-precious beads, also incorporating vintage components.  Necklaces, earrings, anklets, and a new contemporary collection of copper will be displayed.



My love for antique and vintage jewelry and my experience merchandising contemporary fashion jewelry have been the inspiration for my pieces.  Since closing Earthworks West, and spending most of the last 15 years on Maui, I have also come to love the Island life, ocean and vintage Hawaiiana, which are also represented in my work (play).  Think Miriam Haskell meets Carmen Miranda!  Please come by to view and chat, I would love to see friendly faces from the past and meet newcomers.
