Debbie Boyle

​

 Debbie has collected and sold vintage jewelry for most of her life. She loves the beauty of all jewelry. This led to using old jewelry buttons and other old parts and pieces to make her own jewelry. Each piece is reassembled and reimagined into something new. 

 

She then decided she would like to do something different, a little more contemporary, sometimes a mix of both, using gemstones, natural stone beads, Swarovski crystal, and more. All of her pieces of jewelry are made with sterling silver, 14k gold filled, or brass.

 

Debbie was born in Huntington Beach, California where she spent her childhood and educational years. Then, she moved to Arizona and worked in sales and marketing for twenty years. Her husband’s job took her back to California (San Juan Capistrano) for ten years. While there, she had a space in an antique mall and worked. 

 

When it was time to retire four years ago, she and her husband, Tim, relocated to Florence where they had been vacationing for ten years.
