Annette Gabbedey is a 48-year-old master goldsmith who has been practicing her craft for over 20 years. Even though she was born without fingers, she isn’t disabled and wonders how people with fingers manage without them getting in the way.
A story about a fascinating woman who produces exquisite high quality jewelry! I read this article and was in awe, To Annette, her hands are nothing to be ashamed of, or embarrassed about. To others its a wonder. I was humbled by her, her ability and by the fact that she has no complaint. I have days where I feel as if my skills aren’t enough, or I can’t find inspiration, but now I’ll just go back to this article and push forward past the rut!
