Mi carrera como artesano comenzó cuando en la universidad empecé a hacer pulseras de tenedores y eventualmente sortijas de los mangos de cucharas antiguas. Las vendía entre mis clases frente al teatro en la UPRRP (Universidad de Puerto Rico Río Piedras). Esta es una réplica de una de mis cucharas favoritas con las que trabajé en ese período. 

Esta cuchara se produjo en los años 1920 en un estilo llamada "Avivamiento Egipcio", una rama del Art Deco inspirado en los celebrados re-descubrimientos de varias tumbas reales del Antiguo Egipto. 

Cada pieza se fabrica por encargo utilizando la antigua técnica de fundición "Cera Perdida". Por esa razón se le pide 1-3 semanas para la producción de su pieza.

Utilizo brass (latón) en mis diseños para ofrecer una opción en tono dorado más económica al oro, pero sin embargo en ocasiones notarás que tu joyería de brass (latón) tiende a adquirir una apariencia oscura y te puede manchar el dedo. Esto no es una reacción tóxica - es normal que el latón reaccione así con el cuerpo por la naturaleza del metal. El grado de oscurecimiento varía según el pH de tu cuerpo y varía de acuerdo a la persona. Para brillar tu joyería, todo pedido incluye un paño de pulir. Para combatir las manchas a la piel, puedes pintar la pieza adentro con esmalte de uña transparente.  

My career as an artisan began when I started making fork bracelets -  and eventually spoon rings - while in college. I sold them between my classes in front of the theater at the UPRRP (University of Puerto Rico Río Piedras). This is a replica of one of my favorite spoons that I worked with in that time period. 

This spoon was produced in the 1920s in a style called "Egyptian Revival", a branch of Art Deco inspired by the celebrated rediscoveries of various ancient Egyptian royal tombs. Each piece is made-to-order using the ancient “Lost Wax” casting technique. Please allow 1-3 weeks for production.

I use brass in my designs to offer a more affordable option to gold. At times, you will note that your brass jewelry tarnishes and may leave a dark mark on your finger. This is a normal reaction typical to brass and copper, and the degree of tarnishing varies depending on your body's pH. To polish your jewelry, all orders come with a polishing cloth. You can use clear nail polish to coat the inside of your ring to combat any stains on your finger.

Well argued
Format: Paperback
Perhaps I should say at once that giving this slim but meaty volume five stars doesn't mean I personally agree with it. It has been many years since I have subscribed to the substitutionary theory of Jesus' death or the idea that the Bible is anything other than a record of human interfaces with the Unknown. But a review is not the place to argue such points at length. Also, it behooves people who want to think, to seek out alternate and even opposing points of view, in order to test and maybe revise their ideas. Jeremy Treat did not change my mind, but he might have if I held the same view he apparently does of Scripture. He argues well, clearly, and persuasively, and makes a Christianity grounded on this view look at least potentially like a pretty good basis for decent living. There are one or two points that troubled me a little. The concept that Jesus died for us as a community is sound in itself, but if carried to extremes looks very much like the idea that underlay the infamous religious wars and persecutions. Also, on page 86, Treat says: "Forgiveness is not merely dismissing a wrong. My wife and I teach our children that when someone apologizes to them, they should not respond by simply saying, 'It's okay' … To truly forgive, one acknowledges the wrongdoing but chooses to not hold it against the wrongdoer. Forgiveness is … accepting the penalty on behalf of the wrongdoer for the sake of the relationship. It is absorbing the pain yourself rather than seeking to put it back on the other person." Now, to me, this looks like such a clear recipe for Trouble that I very much wish Treat provided several examples for how, exactly, he sees it working in everyday life. Sometimes, as when the apology is a "Sorry" for inadvertently jostling you in a crowd, the simple "It's okay" seems to me by far the best response. These few possible danger points, however, should be understood in the context of the book as a whole, which gives me the very strong impression of a practical pastor who knows his stuff, makes things hang coherently together, and probably gives useful and comforting counsel. I'm guessing, by his book, that he is a man I'd enjoy talking with in person.

Great sink organizer!
Good quality storage/organizer for the kitchen sink. It’s stable and can hold an assortment of dish cleaning products close to the sink. It has a plastic dish underneath to collect drip-off water. This is exactly what I needed to organize!
