@Shanus I remember him well.  I have an interesting set of 3 or 4 of his rings that resemble tree branches and nest together. It's pretty but not comfortable so I rarely wear them. I found him personally to be very disagreeable. He was unbelievably nasty to Rick on one occasion.

I can't believe I don't remember this, but who was the guy from RI whose family owned a jewelry manufacturing business and made pieces with snap-in inserts? I have a ton of that jewelry.

Shanus, did you ever get the silver quilted sneakers?  I got the ones from Zulily this week and think they're super cute and comfortable. Wearing them right now.

Hi @Kachina624. I remember his “twig/branch” jewelry mostly named for his wife or daughters.....The RI jeweler is Joseph Esposito. I met him many years ago at a trade show and he was quite personable. I’m not sure if he still has a business, but I have several pieces...well made & signed, which like KJL and JR, etc., makes them more valuable one day if they show up at estate sales.

Silver sneakers: Isaac’s went back (ill fitting) & I purchased the ones at Nordstrom that started me on that mission. Loving them with all my silver and turquoise jewelry! Quite the statement, huh? Thanks for asking. 😘

Haha......have to agree. Kathy Levine is not looking her best in that picture. Too much skin showing, but at least she looks like she is having fun.
