“Spiral Earrings,” a design for earrings fabricated in 14-karat yellow gold, will be featured in “30-Minute Earrings,” which should come out this fall. Machamer’s necklace design, “Ribbon Necklace,” will be featured in “30-Minute Necklaces,” which will come out in 2010. The design is fabricated from 14-karat yellow gold with three white cultured pearls.
