Watashi wa Kerry desu, watashi hoseki-shokonin desu.

Hello, I'm Kerry, I make some nifty jewelry, and I love Japan!

Aside from maybe teaching English as a way to survive in Japan, I'd like to find market outlets for the silver and gold jewelry which I've been making for many years.

Since I am living on disability in the US, I am cash-poor for business development, but I do have a few samples and a small stock of merchandise.

Since the Japanese seem so brand-name identified, I am concerned that my stuff might not catch on without a lot of effort. Aside from gift shop places that have those-rental display boxes, can anyone suggest shops in major urban areas that might buy or take jewelry consignments?

Here is a link to my Ebay store showing just a few of the things I make:
