Beautiful Jewelry

My son came home from College last weekend and I've been so excited to see all that he accomplished.  He was taking classes on how to repair and manufacture fine jewelry.  Although he didn't learn how to cut any gemstones, he did learn how to set them and how to manufacture some of his own designs.  I'm super proud of him but of course he just sees where he needs improvement.  I have a couple pictures of some of the items he made, these are made with Alloy (not gold) and Cubic Zirconia.


 These are close ups, and not very good ones I might add as they are from my cell phone.  Here are some other pictures of the rings.




Here's a set of earrings he made that are really beautiful!


I'm hoping he continues with it and tries to get an Apprenticeship where he can really practice his skills.  I think everything looks amazing and he doesn't think so, he just thinks I say that because I'm his mom!  Well, maybe I am a little biased!
