  • The jewelry of Rae Anne Johnson: One of a kind jewelry that makes a statement. From Rae Anne's website:
    Rae Anne draws inspiration from the exquisite materials she sources from around the globe. Her treasured memories of traveling to far away places are translated in her designs. Most recently, Rae Anne returned to her birth country of South Korea to search for her birth family. Although she did not find her family, she found peace, fulfillment and understanding. With a fresh perpective, Rae Anne hopes her clients experience the heartfelt expression she puts into every piece.
    Visit Rae Anne's Facebook shop for a taste of her work.
