About Fenya's Finds

My work stemmed from a lifetime of learning about gemstones from my Father, who has been an avid rock hound, his whole life.  It has been an absolute joy working with wire to showcase gemstones, crystals and beads.  The connection that happens between the shape of the gemstone and the wire amazes me every time I finish a piece of jewelry.  It seems the wire, along with my hands, a little intuition and pliers, has the ability to form many shapes, twists and turns to complement every gemstone.  There is an excitement and anticipation at the beginning of every project because I know the journey will result in a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry.  I obtain my inspiration from everything that surrounds me, such as, shapes, abstract art, architecture and the beauty of nature.  I hope that when you wear my jewelry you will experience some of the joy that I have when I made your piece.

Wire - Gold Filled

The difference betweel gold filled vs. gold plated jewelry is that gold filled is of a higher quality.  Also refered to as rolled gold and is at least 5% gold content by weight.  There is 100 times more gold in gold filled wire vs. gold plated.  Gold filled wire is bonded to a base metal (brass alloy) with heat and pressure.  The exterior of the wire is solid 14K gold.  Gold filled wire is a very high quality jeweler's wire.  It will never tarnish, chip or wear away.  The gold filled wire I use is mostly 14K or 12K gold.  The jewelry made with gold filled wire will last you a lifetime!

14K Rolled Gold Jewelry - Cleaning

It is very easy to take care of your gold wire sculpted jewelry due to its durability.  Just make a very mild solution of ammonia and water or liquid jewelry cleaner, soak it for a minute or two, then rinse with water and let dry.
