Sue made a beautiful pair of gold and silver wire earrings for my mom. I gave them to mom as a birthday present and she loves them! She wears them all the time. Sue is so talented and easy to work with. Very satisfied customer.

I began collecting Sue's jewelry about 6 years ago after meeting her through another artist. Sue's work is elegant, delicate and unique- I always get compliments when I wear something she made. You can dress her pieces up and down- I wear her gold wire crocheted earrings with a blouse and jeans, or to a wedding or special event. I love her sculptural wall hangings, as well. Definitely check out her work- it's just beautiful!!

I purchased a beautiful woven wire dress which is a wonderful addition to my home. Susan was very helpful and insightful about which dress would fit in my space and compliment my existing decor. I have since had a get together and all my guests loved the new piece!

I just bought a beautiful ring from Susan Freda. It was a beautiful woven wire art ring that she cast and turned into 14k gold with red sapphires. It’s absolutely stunning and the quality is amazing. They were wonderful to work with and I hope to buy more pieces in the future. I already have my eye on another ring.

I have had the pleasure of living with several of Susan’s sculptures for many years. I also have a few rings and necklaces that I wear often. I absolutely LOVE her work ❤️❤️❤️.

The craftsmanship was extraordinary and the service was wonderful. I bought a mokume wedding band a few weeks ago. Now I’m happily married to my husband Christian. It was worth every penny.The carving looked very clean, and the colors go with everything. The customer service as I mentioned before are incredible. They talked me through each design and price to be sure I would get the desired design at at fair price.They truly put effort and love into their work. The price is perfect for the product!We thank you guys, and we will recommend!-Mark

Bought a mokume wedding band. Paid a ton for a special ring. When it arrived it looked ok but not nearly as cool as the picture on the web site. Had to use it as the wedding was in A few days. With wear over the last few months, it looks nothing like what they look like on the web site. The color variations are nearly invisible. They tell me to keep putting it in chlorox or buy a stronger oxidizer and continuously buff with a scotchbright pad to keep it looking slightly like the photos. Offered to make another more expensive ring and charge a 30% restocking fee. My super special ring is now hardly that at all, paid a ton and it looks nothing like their pictures. Save your money!! It is absolutely not worth it!!!!!

We looked at designers from all over the world and decided that Arn's rings were our favorites! He worked with us carefully to make a set of three rings (engagement ring for my fiance, and wedding rings for us both). They turned out gorgeous, and very affordable compared to any other mokume gane we had seen. The ability to choose the metals, mokume pattern, final ring texture, oxidization, ring width, gemstone type and location was a huge boon. The ring wears well with time and is easy to clean -- small scratches from daily wear don't diminish the look. Thanks for the beautiful work Arn!

Arn Kreb's Mokume Gane rings are awesome!!! I was looking all over the internet for a unique men's wedding ring. Found lots of stamped out mokume gane rings for huge money, and then stumbled upon Arn's work. Called and spoke with Arn who opened the shop just to meet my fiancé and me. He was super patient explaining the process of how he makes the rings and showing us his shop and all the variations of what he can make. Each ring is hand made by Arn using many different layers and types of metals. I know it sounds a little weird, but I love the ring we bought from Arn! Each time I glance down (6+ months of wearing it) I smile because it's a work of art - haven't taken it off yet. It wears well with a nice patina that doesn't diminish the "wood grain" metal work. He also skillfully sized it to my finger, having me try it several times in the process until we got it just right. Thank you Arn!
