Thank you for your interest for my art! I live in Canada but I'm shipping most of my packages from Niagara Falls in US using USPS via ChitChats, which helps to keep lower the shipping costs for my customers, significantly reduces the shipping time for US customers and allows to provide tracking for the most of international customers.
I live in Toronto, where I started to create my craft years ago. It was my full time job for many years and I love what I'm doing. I used to paint and to draw but 3D work appeals to me even more.
It's more than 12 years now that I work with wire. I participated in many craft shows and international conventions including FanExpo, World Fantasy Convention, CostumeCon, BoucherCon. I was invited to make jewelry for the Hollywood movie Pompeii (it was filmed in Toronto).
Everything you see here in my ETSY shop created by me using my own techniques and ideas, sometimes I even create special type of wire to achieve unique look. I rarely use soldering and never glue together my artwork. Wire is a very strong and flexible medium, in many cases it's more secure than soldering.
I carefully package my work for shipping in boxes suitable for gifts and I always try to send out my work ASAP. Sometimes international shipping is delayed by customs so if you would like to receive your item on particular date please contact me in advance (it's much more expensive though except Canada). The most secure way to receive shipping in a short time is FedEx but it might cost up to $150.
I'm shipping my packages with tracking number whenever possible. Tracking may not be available for up to 24 hours after item(s) are shipped.
I can make many adjustments like chain length for example, in most cases it's free. I can even replace a gemstone in my work, with my technique it's relatively easy. I can repeat most of my work in different material which can make it more expensive or much cheaper.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions!
