Sharon Marzonie describes these three pieces she submitted:

"Gorgeous amber earrings carefully matched and accented with turquoise and Thailand silver. Sterling French wires are made by hand with pliers then lightly hammered to lock their shape."


"This bracelet is made of dyed red coral buttons, turquoise seed beads, a square-faceted amethyst, brown leather, and various new styles of Thailand silver beads. The Thai beads are strung on the leather and knotted, while the rest is on beading wire with secured with crimps. It finishes with a sterling lobster clasp."


"A necklace called the "Henna Hand" because the carved bone hand pendant has the henna design motif on it. The beads surrounding it are blue-green turquoise, tiger's eye, and "yellow" turquoise and are strung on beading wire. The beading wire is attached to the deer skin ties throw tiny holes and then crimped. The ties allow the necklace to be worn long or short."
