Bio
Hi, I'm Toni Moore (also known as Toni Geary), I have always loved jewellery so making it really satisfies a passion that I've had for many years.

I was born in England moved to Australia and married an American. We are both citizens now as are our 2 small children.

I am a work at home mum and love to create unique and beautiful jewellery items.

In 1975, I took a metalworking class at school. I loved it but at that time metalworking was not encouraged as a career and certainly not as a career for a ‘girl’. So, as the responsible school leaver was in 1980 she headed for a career in banking.

In 2005 I started making amulet bags, moved on to beaded jewellery, wire wrapping and chainmaille. Then miraculously after 25yrs working in Finance and IT, I took up the torch again and have hardly put it down since. Turning raw metal into beautiful objects is definitely her passion. She loves the way that metal takes on a life of its own when it is bent, hammered and heated. Never afraid to try a new technique, Toni is constantly thrilled with the challenges afforded when working with metal.
