Hi!  Welcome to my website!  My name is Meredith Laskow and I lovingly hand-craft the jewelry on these pages using semi-precious gemstones, Austrian Swarovski crystal, freshwater pearl, and other gorgeous and unique beads.  About half of the pieces are one-of-a-kind; the rest are limited edition.  Some of the individual items took up to four hours to construct.

I'm happy to work with your custom designs, or create a special style just for you.  All earrings can be changed to other earwires or non-pierced, and most necklaces can be made in whatever size you need.  All of my work carries a lifetime guarantee on labor.

Undecided what to get for that special person?  Gift certificates are always a great choice.

	First prize!  (jewelry category)  Orange County Fine Arts 2008 show, "The Artist's Eye." This one-of-a-kind creation has a center pendant of sterling silver set with turquoise, tigereye, and mabe pearl.   In both the necklace and earrings, tiny tigereye rounds dangle from a delicate sterling chain draped over free-form pearls. Necklace is 31".  Order # fp-st-2n $225. Earrings are 3 1/2" from top of earwires.  Order # st-fp-2e $75.  This set will be on display at Orange County Fine Arts Gallery until June 29, and will be available for sale through this website after that.
