Necklace 22" long counting 4" wide center, earrings 1.75" tall, one<br>small chip to one corner of an earring, no other damage. Total weight 92.2<br>grams. Since 1968, experience in all forms of jewelry design and the creative<br>construction of the work itself has given a degree of integrity to Danny’s work<br>not found in many jewelry artists’ pieces. With a background in diamond design, construction, casting and the lapidary arts he is able to bring an unusual scope<br>and dimension to a very well explored media.<br><br>Using his knowledge in casting as well as an unrivaled skill with the jewelers<br>torch, his settings display great strength as well as graceful artistry. Each piece of jewelry created by Danny Stewart is expected, with proper care, to<br>withstand many years of everyday wear.<br>Having such a wide range of skills and many years experience allows Danny the<br>luxury to remain true to the vision before him rather than being limited by a narrow range of abilities.<br><br>Ambitious work like the necklace, bracelet, earrings and ring pictured above,<br>utilizing blood red Mediterranean coral and over a Troy pound of 18 karat gold,<br>is embraced by only the most confident craftsman. Rarely entering competitions, Danny has won blue ribbons in every competition he has entered such as his first place award in the 2000 New Mexico Jewelers<br>Association ‘All That Glitters’ - Silver Jewelry Design competition which was<br>displayed at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History.
