Archetypal forms, pictographs, symbolic icon, personal experiences and totem images found along the "Shiny Trail" influence many of the jewelry designs and amulets which I create. I am a boatman, campfire musician, songwriter, Permaculture Certified gardener, activist, student of life and grateful father of 2 very interesting teen-aged sons.
When making jewelry, one of my main goals is to infuse Chi, or life force, into each piece I make. Most of my jewelry products include a written text of information, which help to interpret the significance of a petroglyph, shape, symbol or spiritual icon. I hope that you find my jewelry designs attractive, emotionally meaningful and empowering...
I appreciate each and every order and strive to provide the best customer service possible. I guarantee that you will be satisfied with the quality of every product purchased from Mountain Angels Trading Company. If not, you may return it within 15 days from purchase date for a full refund or credit on replacement.

Hi John, want you to know the keyring and bracelet are more beautiful than I expected! And, today is my 16th wedding anniversary.
Good medicine. Thank you so much. Hope all is well with you.

Hi John,
We returned from our rafting trip on the Salmon. It was fantastic!!! I just want to thank you. The jewelry gifts were very much appreciated and everyone is enjoying them. I will certainly think of you and your beautiful artwork for future gift giving ideas and celebrations. Your jewelry reminds me of the wonderful nourishing time we had on the Salmon.
Sincerely,

Dear John,
The pendant arrived and it's fantastic!!! I first ordered this earlier this
year as a "thank you" gift for our ski team organizer. She loved it and then
our ski coach bought one!!! My son wants this one, so I may need to get yet
another!!! I'll be in touch! Thanks so much for such a neat keepsake!!

John –
Thank you! The two bolos arrived safely today, & a very good restoration job indeed you have done!
My wife & I are retiring to resume living in New Zealand in a fortnight’s time, after 27 years of work in Queensland.
Even in New Zealand, nobody will have such good bolos!
With best wishes,
Peter
Hello John - Wanted to let you know that the St. Bernard medals arrived on SATURDAY. I am delighted - they are even more attractive in person than on the computer monitor. The bronze is the perfect metal for my sons. Thank you for filling my order so promptly. Patricia
John,
Thanks a lot for getting back to me so quickly. I do not know you well at all but just from your work I know
that you are in touch with the water and earth and that is a good thing. Again, thanks so much for getting back to me, John.
Happy Solstice,
Tom
