Artist Found For Prized Piece of 70s Horseshoe Nail Jewelry!

Amazing as it may seem, we were at the Equine Extravaganza located in the Richmond Raceway Complex in Richmond, VA over Halloween weekend and Elaine (pictured above with Armando) took one look at Armando’s jewelry and immediately suspected that he was the genius behind a piece that her sister purchased for her many years ago at a thrift store in Greenville, North Carolina.

“I actually didn’t wonder much, I was quite certain he had to be the artist, and I couldn’t wait to bring it in the next day to verify my suspicions! My sister was the one who actually bought it and it quickly became one of my favorite pieces, and I’ve gotten sooo many compliments on it and love explaining that it is made from farriers’ nails. Now I will be able to add that I’ve met the artist: Armando Suarez!!!!!!!!!!!”

What a find for all of us and many thanks again to Elaine!

Have a safe holiday,
