Through the years he has mastered a variety of jewelry crafts from
gem carving and stamp making to the traditional Japanese practice of
Mokume-gane, or 'wood grain metal.’<p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>However, the making of work is only a function for Alex — a stone on a path
toward completion — while the enjoyment that his clients get from his work is
something far more rewarding, unexpected and shareable.<p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>Since Alex’s story in the craft of jewelry making has spanned almost his entire
life, it has given him many stories to share; in his own words, “I’d say 90% of
people who buy my work are buying my story as much as the piece: the type of
turquoise, where you got it — just a little backstory — people want that. It’s
how they connect to a piece.†See less
