What does a cat have to do with handmade jewelry? Chuck is my orange tabby cat adopted from the local humane society. I'm more of a dog person and have three great dogs - Freak, Nick, and Emily - but, they aren't as interested in my jewelry as Chuck. He likes to inspect my finished pieces. I think he's looking for a new toy, which is why he seems to like things with dangles better than anything else! His interest has been keen and continuing, which makes it even more fun to make it, so I decided to name it after him in consideration of all his encouragement!

The elements of most of my jewelry is sterling silver or gold-filled components and wire. I use gold-filled because gold is a rare item, so I like to conserve. Gold-filled jewelry is as beautiful as gold, in my opinion, and offers better pricing for my customers. You will always know the components used by reading an item's description. This will help if you happen to have any metal allergies. Other commonly used components are Swarovski crystals and pearls, precious and semi-precious gemstone beads, glass, acrylic, lucite, and polymer clay beads (made by me).

All jewelry is handmade by me, so no two items will be perfectly identical, but the little differences will probably only be noticed by me...and Chuck :)

Please be aware that I make items as they are ordered, so it may take up to three weeks before you receive your order. I will do my best to have your purchase to you well before that, but please know that quality shouldn't be rushed. If you have a particular need for speed, please contact me directly through the "Contact Us" page. I appreciate your patience!

My mission is simple: to provide the best jewelry and service to my customers. I take great pride in my company, my commitment to customer service and in the jewelry I sell. My online store is designed to provide you with a safe and secure environment to browse my jewelry catalog.

Thanks for visiting Chuck the Cat!
