Amy started out by making jewelry with beads and selling at farmers markets in Vail, Colorado. Beading opened the door to metalsmithing. She apprenticed a Colorado jeweler and took metalsmithing classes at night. Using a torch and hammer to manipulate the metal quickly became her passion.

Her current jewelry designs include mostly sterling silver and 14K gold-filled wire. You can still see the influence of beads in her line, with small accents of semi-precious stones to add a little color. She is also exploring the fun of copper and 14K rose gold-filled wire and quickly adding it to her line. Throwing Stars Jewelry includes a lot of hammering so it reflects light, while it also has an organic and hand-made feel.
the Shoshana Earring
She’s a working mom, so when it comes to wearing jewelry, she wants something that’s fun, lightweight and easy to wear, yet sophisticated and makes an artistic statement at the same time. What began as a hobby at her dining room table, Throwing Stars Jewelry has become a mainstay at Beth Ann. Come meet her in person on Thursday, May 13th when she'll be here for her trunk show!
