Don Dewa began making jewelry in 1970, mostly small cluster pieces. About 1990, Don learned mosaic inlay from his mother-in-law, Lorretta Quam Eriacho. He has become an absolute master at mosaic and channel inlay, and has incorporated his trademark surface "spinner" design in bracelets, rings, and pendants, and other jewelry.
