I’m interested in learning more about jewelry making (goldsmithing
and stone setting), and I think that I can learn a lot from the
Orchid Network! The situation in San Francisco at the Phelan
Building was especially interesting to me as I have family in
Northern California, and had just read about the Revere Academy. I am
looking forward to learning a lot as a member of this network! Best
Regards – Monica Ordas

A late bloomer. I’m a very happy artist who discovered her passion
possibly a bit later in life than most. I might be goin’ to hell in
a bucket, baby, but at least I’m enjoyin’ the ride.

Eric Eliason
Coventry, RI. USA
Started in the die cast business 1980’s, making dies for belt
buckles, shoe buckles and ornaments. Did a lot of engraving both
pantograph and hand- especially on the western buckles. Did a lot of
hobbing of the dies and cut some hubs for stamping houses in the
providence/attleborough area. The whole business went to China in
the early 90’s and I switched to making injection molds for
plastics. Took night classes in jewelry and silversmithing back in
the 80’s and found a lot of overlap with all the bench skills
learned as a diemaker. Now live with my wonderful wife and our 2 cats
and dog in Coventry, RI. right next door to my shop.
