Well, it's Wednesday and that means it's time for another HandmadeArtsits spotlight. And this week we are visiting the shop of Rasmussen Gems and Jewelry, the home of John and Debora Rasmussen. We shared this shop before, but there is always something new to find when you visit.
I love rings...and the blingier, the better. And this ring is one I would love to wear, hmmmm, I do have a wedding anniversary and my birthday coming up in the fall. Hey....Chuck!!
John is the lapidary, gemologist, metalsmith, and artisian jeweler, and I'm pretty sure he's the one that created this amazing Tourmaline and Diamond accent ring. It's a size 8 1/2, just a touch too big for me, so Chuck is off the hook (for now) but I'm sure this won't last long, so if you like it, click on the link above and buy it already.
The colors on these earrings caught my eye when I first entered their shop. LOVE THEM! Debora is the one who designed these Mulitcolored Beaded Earrings, as she does all the beaded items in their shop. And with 375 items listed for sale, there is no excuse for you to not find something perfect for yourself, or to give as a gift. They have earrings, anklets, pendants, jewelry sets, bracelets, keychains, faceted stones, and...
cabochons...like this
Blue Strip Chalcedony cabochon. All the cabochons are hand cut by John in his lapidary. Amazing. You can find Rasmussens Gems and Jewlery by clicking on any of the links above. Be sure to tell them Hi from me. :~D

Debbi,
Thank you for your kind blog about our art and shop.

Just love tourmalines! It's good to see them in a modern setting - I'm lucky enough to have inherited necklaces and bracelets from elderly aunts and grandmother which I love to wear: they're destined for each daughter as and when I fall off this mortal coil!
He has such great stuff in his shop and I love all their jewelry designs! :D
John's work is freakin' amazing!
John is a top-notch jewelry designer! His wire work is amazing to say the least!
