Welcome to my web page.  Since I started making jewelry in September of 1971, I have now been creating sterling silver jewelry, decorative table pieces and ornaments for over 54 years.  I still find it to be interesting and fun.  I am planning on showing my work at the NC State Fair in October, 2026 from the 15th through the 25th in the Village of Yesteryear.  I was recently featured in the NC State Fair Blog in honor of my 41st year in the Village. There is also good news for all Village of Yesteryear craftspeople and visitors looking forward to this year’s Fair experience. Over the past year the Village building has been remodeled and has new bathrooms and air conditioning! This upgrade into a climate controlled experience will be appreciated by all.

Pieces that include stones or pearls are usually “one of a kind”, but sometimes I can get similar stones for custom jewelry.  I can also quote you current prices.  I still construct all of my jewelry from Argentium Sterling Silver and I do all pieces by hand, nothing is cast, so each item is truly “one of a kind”!   

Please send me an e-mail at dan@dandye.com if you have questions.  

Thanks & I hope you stay safe & well!  – – Dan
