About Vivian

I am a Gold and Silver Smith specializing in crafting unique and often one-of-a-kind pieces of wearable art in jewelry. I am a digger by nature, fascinated by the outrageous beauty of all that is of the earth. In addition to my 25 years of setting, wrapping and styling works with gemstones, I have recently been captivated by "found" objects from the shores of the Atlantic Ocean surrounding my island home; ancient bones, prehistoric shark and horse teeth, pottery shards and other interesting antiquities of nature. These dense, blackened-by-time objects feel powerful, and invoke in the wearer a primative yet elegant memory of our connection to the energetic forces of the unseen world, to a time when our jewelry was more than adornment, to an age when it was sacred.

When I am not in my workshop, binding together new pieces of healing, wearable art, you can find me cutting and styling hair out front at A Scissor Wizard, located at 86 Helmsman Way, in Palmetto Bay Marina, Hilton Head Island, SC. Often times I am also busy arranging healing gatherings and providing Reiki sessions. More information on these wonderful healing modalities can be found at Hilton Head Reiki.

While looking through the collections, you will find one of a kind peices incorporating mammal bone, local fossils, megalodon shark teeth and gemstones of all sizes and shapes. Incorporating Native and primitive spiritual practices, combined eloquently with the creative process makes these beautiful one of a kind pieces ideal for the eye and healing. In metaphysics there exists powerful healing properties in all stones, bones and metals which were used throughout prehistory.
