Meet the Maker
Welcome to Jackrabbit Crystals! I'm Jacqueline, a passionate handmade jewelry maker who discovered my love for creating sparkling beauty just over two years ago. My brand takes inspiration from the golden landscape of Placer County in Northern California, where I live. Additionally, it's a play on words, incorporating a nod to my own name and the native wildlife right in my back yard.
As a stay-at-home mom, my journey into the world of jewelry making has been nothing short of amazing. In this short span, I've been able to achieve remarkable success from selling my jewelry online. This achievement means the world to me and has surpassed my initial goal of just one order a week. Looking ahead, my goal is to invest in the necessary machinery and tools to create the cabochons and faceted gemstone as well as shape and solder precious metals to use in the jewelry I make that I can showcase online and at local handmade markets.
Beyond crafting jewelry, I'm an active member and dedicated volunteer in my local gem and mineral society. It's a wonderful community where we share our knowledge and experiences in the arts and science of this fascinating world. Through my membership, I've been learning various skills like lapidary, silversmithing, casting, and faceting, broadening my expertise and nurturing my passion.
Gemstones, crystals, and minerals hold a special place in my heart. There's something enchanting about their shimmering allure and fascinating formations that ignites my creative spirit. Among the various techniques I employ, wire wrapping rings is my absolute favorite. I find beauty in simplicity combined with elegance, and that's the aesthetic I strive to capture in every piece I create.
Thank you for joining me on this sparkling journey. I'm thrilled to share my creations with you, each one infused with love, creativity, and the captivating allure of gemstones. Together, let's celebrate the artistry and joy found in handmade jewelry.

How it’s Made
Crafted with patience and precision, each ring is a testament to the lapidary art of handcrafted wire wrapped jewelry. As an artisan, I take pride in transforming gemstones and gold into wearable pieces of nature's wonder.
The process begins as I shape a single wire into a smooth, round ring band, carefully sizing it on a mandrel. Precision is key, ensuring a comfortable fit for the wearer. Once sized, I cut the wire to form the foundation of the ring then delicately create eye loops at the ends of the wire. These loops not only hold the gemstone securely but also add a touch of dainty elegance.
With a carefully selected gemstone, I thread a thinner wire through the bead. The ends of this wire are then threaded through the eye loops of the ring band. This process allows the natural beauty of the gemstone to take center stage and shine through.
With the gemstone nestled within the ring band, I begin wrapping the thin wire around the band. Precision comes into play again as I cut and secure the thin wire, ensuring the wrap is not only beautiful but also comfortable with no sharp ends.
The final touch involves fine-tuning every detail, ensuring that the wire is snug, the stone is centered, and the overall aesthetic is harmonious. The end result is a unique piece that captures the essence of the gemstone's character and the craftsmanship that goes into its creation.
Wearing one of these rings means carrying a piece of the creative journey and appreciation of earth sciences with you — a story of dedication, knowledge, and the joy of handcrafting something beautiful. I hope that when you wear one of my creations, you can feel the passion and care that went into making it.
