Summer Photo of the Iguana Bracelet



This creative piece made by Nacho looks as good on a human wrist as it does on a Palm Tree in the middle of the Texas Summer !

Scorpion Bracelets with Rutilated Quartz






These two scorpion bracelets are AMAZING ! Nacho and his brother Arturo went to a mountain where they often go to hunt and camp. They captured a scorpion close to this size by pouring gasoline into the nest. When the scorpion came out to investigate he became their prisoner - to be used as a model for these bracelets (by Nacho) and to be cast in metal (by Arturo) using the lost wax method. I especially love the movement of the bracelet and it fit snuggly on my wrist. Almost lifelike- UFFFF !!!!

Lobster Bracelet





This is the first and only lobster bracelet that Nacho has ever made. He designed it by using a real(frozen) model! Eek !The bracelet is huge and the movement is incredible. Hinged joints make it (almost) come to life !

Horse Bracelet




This stunning bracelet is just another example of what a fantastic metalsmith Nacho is - It really shows off his skills in sculpture. Every detail is so interesting- I especially love the expression on the horse's face !

Mermaid Necklace with Coral Bead Accent







This is the second mermaid necklace that I have ever seen made by Nacho. She is holding a coral bead and the detail in her scales and face is simply stunning. This would make the perfect piece for any "ocean aficionado" who has a little imagination !

Fort Worth Zoo Ball Donation



This Horned Toad Bracelet(stamped # 1 by Nacho)was purchased by a very special and supportive fan of both Nacho Gomez (his works of art /jewelry ) AND the Fort Worth Zoo. She donated it to the silent auction benefitting the opening of the NEW Herpetarium. Fort Worth is very lucky to have such supportive patrons who help make this town the special place that it is .

La Oruga sin Mariposa





This bracelet was made for a special client in Texas . It is a bracelet that Nacho has made before but the original design had a leaf on top with a butterfly clasp. I like them both the same but for someone who doesn't want such a large bracelet (as the original design) this style is perfect! Nacho offers it with several different types of stones such as onyx, garnet, malachite, or turquoise .
