Jewelry Creations by Lan Hodges
“What began as a small collection of African beads over 40 years ago, blossomed into a passionate hobby and now a small business making eclectic and ethnically-inspired designs. I am originally from the Oakland By Area and have lived here my entire life. The beads I have collected are from all over the world and I now have the time to let my imagination bring them together into unique one-of-a-kind pieces. When not creating, I enjoy cooking, exercise, reading old books and hanging out with my senior cat Pearlie. I hope you enjoy my designs; if there is anything you have in mind for yourself or a friend, I would love to bring it to life for you as a custom piece.”
