Eleganty Crafted Table

The table is well crafted and elegant. It is sturdy and acts as a centerpiece. It is both utilitarian and a crafts piece.

Back for a second pair

Product picture

I ordered these earrings in 2021 and wore them non-stop. Unfortunately, I left them in a hotel room and never got them back. I kept checking back with the artist's store until they finally showed up online again and immediately ordered a second pair. Why do I love them? Great size/impact, goes with all my silver pieces, sturdy AND beautiful on. If you like a medium to large hoop, check these out.

Beautiful talavera serving bowl

I love the colors of talavera and this bowl is just as pretty as any, very good size which holds a lot. Perfect for my collection.
