Silver agate cuff
I am fascinated with the materials I use to make jewelry. The silver, rocks, and minerals are full of the wonder of nature. It’s pretty cool that when I cut the stones I use in my work, the stones will tell me what they want.

Currently, his jewelry is now carried by selected galleries around the country.
Meditation time is crucial to me. I live around lots of water, so when a break is needed, I go sit by the river, meditate and pretend to be fishing. I also love to garden. —Jim Hayes
