The Silver Diva creates custom, personalized hand stamped jewelry for families and specializes also in gifts for doulas, midwives, pregnant mamas, and wedding parties. I sell necklaces, bracelets, earrings, ankle bracelets, cufflinks, collar stays, pendants, rings, guitar picks, and pet tags. The art of hand stamping involves creating designs and letters by striking metal with steel stamps. It's similar to engraving, but done by hand instead of a machine and is much deeper than engraving. I use mostly sterling silver, but also copper and gold filled in my designs. I also use a variety of pewter and silver charms and Swarovski crystal birthstones for a splash of color.

I started this business because I wanted to wear my children's names close to my heart all the time and I have found that mothers all over the world have a similar desire. Just a few designs has now blossomed into over 100 styles that I sell on a regular basis. I look forward to helping you create a special keepsake for yourself or your loved one.
