Leather jewelry that shines! Forget what you know about leather jewelry. It’s not just black and brown wrist cuffs. It’s metallic gold, silver and copper. It’s blue, green, red and yellow and every color in between. It’s no longer embellished with rivets, studs and buckles, but rather it’s thick ropes and delicate strands dressed up with sparkling beads of silver and gold and crystal, ceramic and lengths of chain. Cheryl Thompson of Jewels of the Vineyard has taken leather to these new heights. She searches the globe for leathers from Spain, Greece and Italy. The beads overflow her workroom and end up in a myriad of color and shape along a string of leather. All of it comes together in her Yountville workroom to create beautiful and unique leather jewelry. Leather has grown up and is dressed up. “I’ve been an artist my entire life, although not always a jewelry designer. From hand-painted linens and fabrics to a ceramic manufacturing corporation, my hands have always followed my heart or art passion. I create jewelry to express the beauty of the person who has chosen my work to wear. “I truly love what I do. Creating beautiful jewelry is such a pleasure!” Find Jewels of the Vineyard bracelets in Napa, Yountville, Sonoma, Healdsburg, Hillsborough and Half Moon Bay.
