  I have several pieces of jewelry made by this talented artist! She even crafted my engagement/wedding ring. I cherish each and every piece of jewelry I own from Claire. Having the privilege of also being a friend, I know that her heart and soul goes into every creation. Her line is constantly adapting to the world and experiences around her, and you can see that reflected in her ever-evolving inventory. My first set of earrings are still among my favorite, 6 years later. I love the femininity and delicacy of them. I also have another set of earrings and two necklaces. Each piece feels like a symbol of the earth, and the quality is unmatched! And, if loving them isn't enough, I almost always get a compliment when I'm wearing her designs. This review would not be complete if I left out the process of designing a custom ring. I have two custom rings! One she made with my husband's guidance as a "stand in" engagement ring. The other is my wedding ring I wear everyday. Both rings are perfect reflections of me and my husband. At the time Claire was hired to design and make my wedding ring, she and I lived in different states. This did not interfere with her ability to hear my thoughts, sketch some ideas, and ultimately create exactly the ring I wanted. Claire is very communicative and responsive. When I felt nervous or anxious about the process, she was quick to email back or call - depending on what we were both available for. She is also very clear and direct about the cost, up front, so there are no shockers at the end. She also gave honest recommendations about which gems could withstand wear and tear and which were prone to damage. Being the gem she is, she even worked with my husband behind the scenes to surprise me when the ring was actually done. I cannot express my love and gratitude for Claire's craft enough. She is truly gifted as an artist, and her warmth and soul are unmatched.

  I'm so glad I discovered the talented Clare Sommers Buck at a craft fair a few years back. Firstly, her pieces have become my favorite go-tos that I reach for and wear daily. The jewelry is of very high quality and durability, with a special character that is somehow both modern and ancient. It makes me feel empowered to wear because it reflects my own style, which I see as a mix of likewise contrasting elements - edgy and delicate, silver and brass, jeweled and minimalistic. Secondly, Claire cares immensely about her work and in connecting with customers. She is kind and responsive, which really enhances the experience of supporting locally handmade products.
