Alice Royer individually handmakes each piece of jewelry, beginning with original designs. The work can include sawing, cutting, texturing, soldering, polishing and setting stones. She most often uses sterling silver; sometimes appliques of copper or brass are used as accents on jewelry. Lapidary work begins with raw rough rock. Cutting, sawing and polishing finally creates a beautiful cabochon. Alice owned an agate ranch in West Texas from 1996-2008. Many beautiful cabochons were made from the rough rock gathered there. As she states, "My goal is to provide a unique, beautiful piece of jewelry to the customer at a reasonable price."
