Joe Rissin, owner of Rissin’s Jewelry Clinic in Manhattan has been making and repairing jewelry since he was in high school. Now his clinic is the destination for people who want their fine jewelry or even their costume pieces repaired or upgraded. Joe also enjoys working with metal clay, and sent me a couple of shots of some custom work he’s done.

These are pieces that I have designed and made. Above is a genuine butterfly wing encased in an 18KY gold frame and back with a quartz crystal on front. Below is a back view showing a removable and interchangeable necklace.
