All;

    Donna E. Shimazu is the first woman to be certified as a master
    bench jeweler by Jewelers of America. She works for Maui Divers of
    Hawaii, a jewelry manufacturing and retailing company based in
    Honolulu, as a designer and research and development specialist. She
    has her own custom jewelry and model making business and she teaches
    jewelry making at the Honolulu Academy of Arts. 

    In 2003, Donna attended her first SNAG conference in San Francisco.
    In anticipation of meeting fellow Orchidians, she took orchid design
    pins for the annual pin swap event. The pins were a hit and Karen
    Christians of Metalwerx asked Donna if she would be interested in
    letting Orchid use her designs for fund raising via the Orchid Shop.
    Donna agreed to give Orchid free use of her designs and made up the
    production models. Daniel Grandi of Racecar Jewelry came on board to
    do the manufacturing for Orchid. 

    Every piece of Orchid jewelry purchased helps to support Orchid and
    The Ganoksin Project!

For a better Orchid
