Suzann Beals, a local New Hampshire artist, creates uniquely beautiful jewelry that is sold throughout the United States.

Using a form of jewelry-making that dates back to the ancient Egyptians, Suzann has developed her own style of wrapping semi-precious stones with either sterling silver or gold-filled wire to create stunning pendants - offering those that choose them, a highly personalized accessory.

Artist's Statement

I began my fantastic journey of making jewelry after breast cancer. I thought there would be no more life for me. I was second generation to this awful disease. When I was in a world of darkness a wonderful lady showed me a bracelet she had made with wire. A new world was discovered. I watched as the doors of sunshine opened. There was a magnetic pull to the wonderful shapes of natural stones; the freedom of caressing stones with wire; the challenges of following the plans that Mother Nature has given me. I learned to listen to the universe, the best teacher of all.

I am often asked how I choose my stones, yet I believe it is how they choose me. I feel we are one waiting to be united by creativity - when we join hands, the song is played, the dance is danced, the energy flows. I am carefully listening to what the stones say, for they tell me which way they are to be dressed in their coat of silver or gold.
