Ninika Gordon

Ninika is the daughter of a potter and a bookbinder, and has tried her hand at many artistic endeavors. She worked alongside Richard in the wood shop for over thirty years, before returning to her original love of silversmithing. Each piece of her jewelry is a one of a kind original, and is inspired by organic shapes and textures found in nature. Follow Ninika on Facebook at Phineas Rose Jewelry Studio.

He works primarily in the wood shop, but also creates semi-precious stone cabochons which are used in the jewelry studio, as well as designing his own mixed media sculptures, featuring a variety of stone, metal and wood.
