Fine Jewelry & Handmade
Jewelry Together in One

Jewelry is either fine jewelry, such as gold jewelry in jewelry stores, gold jewelry with diamonds, gold rings, diamond rings, gold charms, gold chains, or any kind of commercial production jewelry that is made of gold that is offered in jewelry stores, that has real gemstones such as diamonds, and even has certificates, but an artist has never seen such a piece with his live eyes or even touched it with his hands much less even made it.  Or jewelry is handmade jewelry, craft jewelry, handcrafted jewelry, or jewelry that is made by crafters or artists, where the jewelry pieces are not made usually from solid gold, and often not even from sterling silver. This type of artist or crafter made craft jewelry, handcrafted jewelry, or handmade jewelry often is made from steel, or from copper and only has the look of sterling silver and solid gold jewelry, and has glass or cubic zirconia instead of real gemstones such as:   amethyst, blue topaz, citrine, garnet, peridot, tourmaline, or even emerald, sapphire, ruby, or diamond.  Of course why the market of jewelry in gold and silver with real gemstones probably is going sour is because no one has the opportunity to examine a lady's handcrafted jewelry pair of earrings, a necklace, or a ring at an eye's glance when it is worn in public, and such ladies get away with thinking no one will ever know.  Yes, but someone wearing the jewelry still does know. Then there is also the handmade jewelry, or craft jewelry that is the so called handmade by artists and often also is called handcrafted jewelry, but does not even include rings because it is only beaded jewelry offering only necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, and such craft jewelry or handcrafted jewelry although again will sometimes even look nice, someone wearing it knows it does not require a very highly skilled professional specialist to bead a strand of beads.  Beaded jewelry is handmade jewelry but it is usually without the gold and without the silver, and without the work of a skilled silversmith or a skilled goldsmith, a jewelry artist, or any skilled handwork from an artist. Beaded jewelry is handmade jewelry, and skill is needed to make such craft jewelry, but the skills to strand beads are very basic.  And then still there is the contemporary jewelry, the European art jewelry or the designer jewelry that is made of materials such as, for example, plastic or paper and designers make names for themselves with such jewelry on shows.  The European contemporary jewelry is made by designers, but again this kind of contemporary jewelry is usually without gold and without silver or handwork of a metal artist, unless the metal is steel or copper, or other non precious metal, and it's often only the name that counts in such craft jewelry, handmade jewelry, or designer jewelry.  But when a woman wears a piece of jewelry, she will not be wearing a designer's name around her neck, her wrist, or her finger, but the piece itself.  Gregory Pyra Piro is both fine jewelry and handmade jewelry by artist, at the same time.  The jewelry is original handmade and is made in sterling silver and solid gold of either 14 karat gold or 18 karat gold and has semi precious gemstones such as:  amethyst, blue topaz, citrine, garnet, peridot, tourmaline, or diamond, emerald, sapphire, and ruby.  It is not only hard to find today jewelry that is really artist made, but even harder if the artist made jewelry is made with real gemstones, and precious metals.

Amethyst and Garnet

A purple and red combination of gem stones, amethyst and garnet is one of the design combinations found in Piro designer jewelry.  The amethyst and garnet gem stones in Piro art jewelry are placed together with sea glass, moonstone, pearls, cut glass, drusy, and may sometimes even be placed in a unique way with amber.  All the pieces shown on our site are jewelry artist original handmade in sterling silver, 14 karat gold, and 18 karat gold.  At times the sterling silver and gold pieces may have ebony wood or black oak as part of the design, which makes these pieces really unique.



































Handmade Jewelry

Many of the jewelry artist Piro jewelry designs are made in sterling silver and 14 karat gold, rather than in just sterling silver or 14 karat gold.  It's an important part of Piro designer jewelry that all pieces shown on our website are artist's original handwork.  It is possible to make casting designs in only sterling silver or only in gold to have them repeated without any jewelry artist handwork.  But, if you have a design piece that is in both, sterling silver and in 14 karat gold together, you know it is the designer jewelry artist original handmade jewelry handwork.  In Piro designer handmade jewelry, this is what is a very important point.  Artist original handwork? Yes.





A Piro nature pendant brooch master piece was created for a special order in sterling silver and 18 karat gold with facet cut amethyst, garnet, blue sapphire, diamond, sea glass, and pearl.  This kind of combination of gem stones is possible to be seen in Piro art jewelry.  The piece is displayed on the special order page.
