I selected “Precious Mettle” as my company name because:

​

* My Mettle (honor, integrity, honesty, sincerity) has always been very precious to me.
* As a Goldsmith and Jeweler,I work with, respect, and value precious metals.

 

Life's challenges have  made me acutely aware of how much my mettle means.   As a
young man I wore my mettle like a badge... or shield. My mettle made me strong and
decisive. It gave me the courage to face adversity and constantly seek new ways to
use my talents. My mettle kept me on the right path.
 

I believe each of us has our mettle tested at various points in life. The power of the
sacred Trinity and of Mind, Body, and Spirit keep us true to purpose, and maintains our
precious mettle. My jewelry is designed to be a touchstone and witness, helping to
remind us of the power of the Holy Trinity and our Mind, Body, Spirit connection
throughout the day, especially when our mettle is tested.

 

My relationship with the Trinity has evolved. The new,  Mind,Body,Spirit Trinity pendant
is a symbol of my  belief in a holistic health lifestyle. The pyramid inside the rings
represents the interplay of Mind, Body, and Spirit. That connection, and its
relationship with the Holy Trinity of the Christian faith, are what gives the Precious
Mettle Trinities their power.
 

Trinity Pendant, The Trinity Pendant that Andre wears is now available to the public. Each piece is hand made and formed from the original molds that created his.
Now for my love of tennis and the creation of the I Love Tennis Jewelry line. After
over 35 years of teaching tennis full time, I am back to designing and manufacturing
jewelry. I'm not hanging up my racket completely, but limiting my on court time for awhile. I hope you enjoy these pieces as much as the original Trinity, and the Mind,Body, Spirit jewelry. Thank you for your interest. May you live a full and happy life in a peaceful world!
