Our Motto ... "Making the Most of the Least"

At Bowman Originals creating a fine quality custom handmade item of jewelry begins with raw material. Raw material like the 100 ounce silver bar shown in the photo. The pure silver, .999 fine, is melted in a crucible and pure copper is added in the proper proportions to produce Superior Sterling Silver. This formula is void of any fillers such as zinc and cobalt which can cause problems for the wearer. 

Pure gold is mixed exclusively with pure silver and pure copper in a proportion to produce our Signature 18 k Yellow Gold color.

Bowman Original's unique precious metal formulas for Superior Sterling Silver and 18 k Yellow Gold  have been developed and tested over many years. By developing these formulas Bowman Originals is able to perform certain techniques which otherwise would not be possible ... such as Vitreous Enamel (Glass) on Sterling Silver as shown in the photo.

This unique mineral is known and appreciated for its beauty as well as its legendary spiritual properties. Sodalite, a beautiful mineral of blue to blue - violet color often with secondary colors of salmon, white and grays, is believed to encourage self discipline and will power. 

It is also known to encourage telling the truth and seeking the truth. Wearing Sodalite during the day can help one develop effective methods of dealing with daily tasks and challenges.

Preserving a family heirloom

A client brought her Grandfather's cherished compass. She recalls childhood days fishing the streams of Minnesota with her Grandfather. She wanted to do something other than put the compass in a cabinet or drawer. She wanted to wear. I could strongly relate as I use to fish with my Grandfather.

I designed and built a housing for the compass that could be worn as a pendant. The spiral design around the perimeter represents eternity. The pendant is Sterling Silver and 18k Yellow Gold. We made a 36 inch chain in Sterling Silver and 18k Yellow Gold. It is long enough for her double it over and still pass through the bail. We put a Fleur de Lis on the bail which represents the "Flower of Life". The compass needle is free to move. The back of the pendant is engraved with personal information. It was truly a pleasure making this piece.
