About the Artist

Geri Verble, jewelry design artist, developed a passion for tribal and ethnic beads and pendants while working for the Peace Corps. Bead collecting not only became a passion for her, but a journey into learning about the history of beads. Each bead and pendant has its own history and tells its own story. Geri resides in Placitas, New Mexico, a place that is reminiscent of such distant and exotic places as those to which she has traveled. It is a unique place which gives her inspiration for her exceptional designs.
