Self-employed, together with my husband in our business Textile Gems TM, our handcrafted arts business--founded in 2002--creates jewelry and home decor items from vintage ethnic textiles. Generally, we sell
wholesale to museum shops but we also do a few retail shows during
May and October each year, here in New York City.
We are also avid collectors of unique vintage and and antique ethnic textiles from around the globe.
Our newest venture is Textile Gems TM Greeting Cards, and our card lines currently include 45 blank cards showcasing some of our favorite textile crops photographed from our collections. You can see them on this page.
