Fine craftmanship

Product picture

Absolutely beautiful earrings. Craftmanship is superb. The best and light in weigh so they can be worn almost all the time. Thank-you

Touched My Heart

Product picture

Seji Taram's talent and her story touched my heart. Her husband would be proud of how she is carrying on his legacy, and she is a wonderful artist in her own right. My Winged Dragon is so beautifully carved in such exquisite detail. I love it. And I love that she signed it, and her signature will remind me that we can survive loss and move forward in life. Thank you, Seji Taram, you are amazing!

It is a solid piece that we will cherish forever. THANK YOU! We look forward to order from this company and this maker again soon.
