SILVERSMITH AND JEWELRY ARTIST NANCEY BRACKETT
I work with sterling silver, mineral slabs, dinosaur bone, and beautiful cabachons to create unique, one of a kind pieces. My pieces include pendants, earrings, silver wire cuffs, silver cuffs with set stones, inlay cuffs and pendants, and inlay knifes. My husband Mark works with wood, and is now making cutting boards, many of which I then inlay stone.

I started playing with silver a number of years ago after taking lessons from a very talented silversmith in upstate New York. I then traveled two and a half hours each way once a week for a five week class in Kingston , Ontario. I set up a small studio and began to play and experiment with torches and hammers and bezels and setting stones. After retiring from years of owning and running a horse farm in northern New York I decided to pursue my passion for creativity by traveling to Ghost Ranch in New Mexico for an intensive silversmith and inlay course. This experience was life changing, and I came back to northern New York and expanded the studio and went to work. I returned to Ghost Ranch for a second class in 2016. I also have been able to spend time in Tucson for several winters, and have joined the Old Pueblo Lapidary Club. There I am learning new techniques from numerous talented artists.
Perhaps my passion began long ago, following some genetic seed. My grandmother, Alta Belle Morrow was a gifted silversmith who created magnificent pieces back in the mid nineteen hundreds. She worked with silver and turquoise, as well as gold, and was a talented chain maker. I have a few of her tools that were saved, and use them in my studio.
The work I do is time and labor intensive and I do not mass produce, therefore I do not have a sale page on the website. You can contact me if you are looking for something in particular, or want to commission something with a particular stone.
