Jet of the Day: Dashery

Our Jet of the Day today is Lori from Dashery.  I am fascinated with the ancient art of chainmaille and Lori is a chainmaille artist.
Substantial Round Chainmaille Bracelet in Sterling Silver with Toggle Clasp
 After just a few classes at a local Arts Center, Lori moved from creating handmade jewelry with Sterling silver and copper;  natural gemstones  and crystals to intricate metalwork.
Silver Unisex Chainmaille Ring


 Lori has not left her original jewelry skills behind. Take a peek at some of her artistic  jewelry creations.This design was inspired by the Henna designs that are usually done on skin. In this case, Lori hand inked this paisley design onto a large shell circle then sealed it.

Amazonite Faceted Nugget Necklace with Flower Detail


At Dashery, it is the details that will draw you in. Each piece has an unexpected twist that says "one of kind" to the world.








Key and Quartz Sterling Silver Earrings



Big loopy silver chains are huge this Spring. Lori is right on track with the trends
