You’re searching for something meaningful—whether it’s a handcrafted piece of West Coast–inspired jewelry to remember your visit to beautiful Victoria, BC, or a memorial keepsake created with cremation ash to honour a loved one, pet, or family member. Every piece I make is artisan-crafted with care, combining over 20 years of glassblowing experience with a deep understanding of memory, love, and connection.
My hope is that you find a piece that speaks to your heart, holds your story, and becomes something you’ll treasure for years to come—whether it’s a memorial necklace, cremation ash to glass pendant, or a small everyday keepsake infused with meaning.
Please allow 2-8 weeks for memorial completion.
I am a flameworker based in Victoria, British Columbia, creating handmade glass jewelry as part of my Vancouver Island Collection. I melt, spin, and sculpt a type of scientific glass known as borosilicate (know as Pyrex). This glass cools quickly and is highly resistant to thermal shock, allowing me to create lightweight, durable pieces designed for everyday wear.
To shape the glass, I work with a high-temperature torch that melts the material at over 2,500°F, along with hand tools such as scissors, a reamer, and a paddle. A foot pedal controls the flame, while gravity and the fluid motion of spinning the glass guide each piece into its final form. This same process is used whether I am creating jewelry inspired by the West Coast or meaningful ashes-to-glass cremation memorial keepsakes. While two pieces may share a similar design, no two are ever the same. Each piece is hand-worked and naturally unique, shaped by subtle shifts in heat, chenistry of coloured glass, the silver and gold for fuming technique, movement, and the ash itself in memorials. The finished glass responds to light, environment, and the wearer, resulting in artisan-made, heirloom-quality glass jewelry created to honour people and pets, for all ages.
