Hi All, I'm an old time Orchid member returning. I've been making jewelry for about 10 years and cutting stones for the last 5. A few years ago I went back to school full time for metalsmithing and am finishing my BFA this December (yeay!). I recently moved my studio to Emeryville California, which is right inbetween Oakland, Berkeley and San Francisco. I look forward to catching up on Orchid..thanks!; http://lapidaryart.com Amy OConnell Jewelry
