About Me

My photo
I am a Canadian, living in Ecuador since 2012. After spending a year in Cuenca, and learning Spanish language basics, I moved to Olon, a town near Montanita, on the coast of Ecuador. In April 2014, I just relocated again to a great little town in the Andean Sierra called Pifo. Here I have been enjoying living and exploring the Northern Sierra.

Jewelry - Rings from Semi-Precious Stones and Silver


These rings are handmade from semi-precious stones and designed and set in metal by Ecuadorian artisans.

Suggested price: $25

Please tell me what type of stone and shape you want, and I will do my best to find it.

These below are genuine silver rings, some are set with semi-precious stone. Once again, these are sold by the weight of the silver, not by intricacy of design.

If you would like to order a silver ring, send me your specifics, and I will get you a price.



There is an endless variety available. I didn't have time to do closeups on all of these. If you want a zoom picture, follow the link to my Google+, and you can zoom in there.


Some of these are shell, others are semi-precious stone, all set in silver. Prices vary of course, and it is mostly based on weight of the silver.

If you are interested in a price, tell me what style you want, and I will get an individual picture and price for you.

Jewelry - Genuine Silver Earrings


Genuine silver earrings handmade by local artisans, in many different styles, including filigree. 

Average price: $39 pair, but some are less, others more
Earrings with more silver cost more usually, as vendors charge per gram of silver. Thus the filagree earrings have more intricate details, but less silver, so they actually cost less.

Here are individual pictures for detail. Email me your choice and questions and I will do my best.
