I absolutely adore my cuff bracelet - there is such a special feeling in this piece and I just love it! Thanks for answering all my questions and helping me with sizing. I highly recommend this shop for one of a kind pieces of very special jewelry.

What a great collection of jewelry for those of us who aspire to do what Kathleen does- I am so pleased with the quality of the pieces and what a bargain for the whole lot!

This is such a unique store, and I am delighted with my pouch necklace- the antique fabric and garnets have a magical feel and I can tell the owner puts alot of time and love into her work. Thanks again!

ALTaeRation is a tour de force.
Kathleen's exquisite pieces are, at once, an ephemeral and celestial experience. Her offerings are capable of transporting one to a better place …. to a world gone by, with the most gentle grace and subtlety. A rendering of eternity in each lovely piece. It has been the most enchanting on line experience I have ever had. Prepare to be swept off your feet… offerings like hers only come once in a lifetime….. treasures…. sure to be cherished for generations.

I have worn this beautiful necklace every day since receiving it (super fast shipping). Every element is exquisite. Altaeration designs are not only beautiful, they are full of meaning so that they lift your spirits on many levels. You will love your purchases from this gifted designer!

Exceptional artistry and craftsmanship....this artist's work always exceeds my expectations !!

Buying a piece from ALTaeRation is buying a piece of history, culture, and magic. Each exquisite piece from this one-of-a-kind shop is a medley of enchanting ingredients that have come together, across time and place, to make a beautiful--and often breath-taking--adornment. I am a repeat customer, and I treasure each ALTaeRation piece I have because I know they are truly unique works of art--but more than that, they each carry a special intention with them (pay attention to the poems and prayers she includes in her descriptions!). Buying a work from ALTaeRation is a total sensory experience--from the faint incense that wafts as you're unwrapping the package, the tinkling sound of charms, the wonderful feel of the elements, and of course, the stunning visual impact of every piece Kathleen makes. I am so happy to have found this artist...her work is truly to be cherished.
