Welcome
to Cyan Rift Jewelry...
Gorgeous
and ethereal handcrafted artisan jewelry and accessories.
Hi,
I'm Sharon Marzonie, owner and designer of Cyan Rift Jewelry. I have been
producing and showing my jewelry collection in galleries and online for the past
eight years. I am originally from the Akron, Ohio area, and went on to graduate
from the University of Arizona. I now reside in Prescott, which is in north-central
Arizona.
I enjoy designing one-of-a-kind pieces that are light-hearted, whimsical or have
an ethereal feeling
while giving great attention to detail, color and texture. My collections
include an unusual assortment of precious and semi-precious gemstone beads,
coral, spiny oyster shell, and pearls, along with metal components. I carefully
hand-select each gemstone strand and component from suppliers known for their
workmanship. It is my hope that the artistry is resonant enough to exist as a
highly personalized piece of jewelry for the wearer.
I love to travel to natural places where I find an abundance of inspiration from
their intricate designs and colors such as arduous canyon stone,
rainbow-colored birds, the cyan-colored Sea of Cortez, and the hot springs of
the Southwest. Thus the business trade name, CYAN
RIFT, which to me represents
beautiful jewelry that rises from the earth and sea floor!
I am a very conscientious person and believe in working towards a healthier working
environment, as well as a healthier earth. Therefore, I make an effort to source
materials that are green-friendly, such as fair-trade silver, vintage trade
beads, and locally-mined gemstones whenever possible. I also use gift boxes that
are made from 100% recycled paper.
I strive to provide a store-front that is well-organized, easy to navigate,
clean, and updated. Your comments and suggestions are always welcome. Please
feel free to call or email me.
xoxo,
P.S. To the Cyan Rift jewelry wearer, I recommend wearing it often, with jeans,
evening gowns, or with nothing. I hope it makes you feel beautiful and sends you on a journey . . .
