Claudia Carreón, Copper, Brass and Silver Designs provides exquisite handcrafted purses, scarf pins, brouches, cuffs, rings and belt buckles.
All items are one-of-a-kind and lead-free. Oxidized pieces are made of recycled metal, a small way to help the environment.
I started designing and making bracelets after taking metals and jewelry classes at RIT in Rochester, NY having as teacher my paisano, Juan Carlos Caballero Pérez, an awesome metal artist.
I live in Hilliard, OH with my husband and two small boys.
Part of my sales go directly to help patients at Children's Hospital in Morelia, Mexico, my hometown.
On Dec. 2009, 18 children received winter jackets and clothes. I also collected gently used clothes and blankets for the parents of those children who, due to lack of funds, camp outside the hospital waiting for their children to be discharged. In 2011, 30 kids received backpacks filled with toys and school supplies.
Thank you for continuing to support your local artists and small business owners and for helping me help sick children in my town.
