Hi there,

    The problems might be: 

    - you don't have enough jewelry industry trade skills for them to be
    interested in you 

    - jewelers are a careful lot, and like to meet people in person and
    preferably get a personal referral or introduction 

    I would suggest that you join ALL of the possible
    guilds/professional associations in your area -- the metalsmithing
    one, if there is one, Women's Jewelry Association, whatever else you
    can find.  Go there and network and meet people. 

    Spending some time in trade school might help, as I am always
    saying. 

    Good luck. 

Elaine
