Mescal and Don Taylor are designers of artistic jewelry made mostly in silver with handmade Lampwork beads.  We are a husband and wife team that have been in many successful retail art businesses in California for over 43 years.  Taylor’s Art Center/Taylor’s Frame Shop/Taylor’s Gallery with locations in Stockton, Sacramento and North Sacramento.

We take pride in our simple designs that reflect an artistic presentation.  Our name is MESCAL which is my name, a family name of Native American origin.  My grandfather named my Aunt Mescal from a Zane Gray novel. 

After our retirement, from retail, in 2002 we sold our Artist Supply and Framing Stores and have been exploring the many uses of Silver and Handmade Lampwork Beads used in jewelry making.  We have been expanding our line over the last 3 years and feel it is starting to represent what we want. 

We have been selling our jewelry to select stores and galleries located in California and Oregon  for the last three years.  We are represented exclusively on Maui  by Sargent’s Fine Jewelry and Gallery in Lahaina, Maui Hawaii.  On Oahu by Cina Cina in Honolulu at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel.  At Jeannie's Jewelry in Sacramento. 

If you do not live near one of the retailers representing our jewelry, please contact us for availability and prices.  We will be happy to place your order by phone!

Mescal Designs had a one person show at Sargent’s in May of 2006.  We've showed at the Crocker Art Festival and  occasional appearances during Trunk Shows at Jeannie's Jewelry in Sacramento.
