<p>Welcome to the&nbsp;gallery of Francis &amp; Linelle Lynch. These are all&nbsp;photos of&nbsp;our handcrafted jewelry designs&nbsp;as well as a few beautiful estate pieces.&nbsp;Each piece is unique. Every gemstone is hand selected to inspire our creative process.<span class="full-image-float-right ssNonEditable"><span><img src="http://www.francismlynch.com/picture/FML-21-902?pictureId=2679781&amp;asGalleryImage=true&amp;__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1266166406860" alt="" /></span><span class="thumbnail-caption" style="width: 480px;">Black Opals in 22K featured in 2009 American Art Collector.</span></span>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>We work&nbsp;primarily in 18kt,&nbsp; 22kt Yellow,&nbsp;Red and Green Gold and Platinum. We have recently started using a new alloy of 95% Palladium and&nbsp; 5% Ruthenium called TruPd. TruPd has the same color and characteristics of Platinum but at a more attractive price.</p>
<p>All the gold used in the creation of these wearable works of art are "Green" in that they are all from recycled metals.&nbsp; &nbsp;One 14k gold ring made from mined ore&nbsp;dumps 5 tons of toxic waste into our environment!&nbsp; &nbsp;As an old hippie&nbsp;Francis finds this unacceptable, as does Linelle (although she is not an old hippie).</p>
<p>All of the gemstones&nbsp;we use in our designs&nbsp;are natural and untreated,&nbsp;and are&nbsp;sourced from socially ethical suppliers.&nbsp;</p>
