The name of my business is Fretmajic because I make the jewellery using a fretsaw (also called coping saw). A musical instrument maker (Paul Doyle) trained me about 6 years ago to decorate his musical instruments, using the technique of cutting pieces of "precious" wood with a hand-saw (he also taught me to make bodhrans). Since then, I have been making neckaces, earings and broches using that same technique and using his off-cuts of the most beautiful wood in the world, native irish woods, as oak, yew, cherry, walnut and the 5 000 years old bog oak and bog yew and also rosewood, purple heart, ebony, pink ivory, cocobolo and many others.
