A gallery in America is offering consumers the chance to buy unique jewellery in its new store.<BR/><BR/>Leeway Gallery opened in May and has a host of art, paintings, dolls and jewellery all made by Prince Edward Island artists.<BR/><BR/>Leigh Ramsay, the owner and contemporary jewellery designer told The Journal Pioneer: "People can come in here and look at what I do or know a style or design they like and I can do up a bunch of designs and they can pick their favourite. I use gold, silver, stainless steel, aluminium, basically any type of metal."<BR/><BR/>Among the jewellery made by Mr Ramsay are necklaces, bracelets and rings, which are all made with different techniques.<BR/><BR/>"Basically I take inspiration from leaves, from abstract shapes to plant-esque shapes to insects and geometric shapes, pretty much anything that catches my interest at any particular time," he added.<BR/><BR/>At present the designer is working on new rings made from 14 carat gold wire, offering an item with "that little bit of difference".<img src="http://directnews.dehavilland.co.uk/dn.gif?feedid=196&itemid=2839520"/>
