	Description:		My guest on the Thursday, October 14th, 2010 program at 3PM Pacific/6PM Eastern is Sam Patania, of the 'three generations of Patania men' who have been working for over 70 years, creating jewelry and decorative objects that have come to be known for their excellence in craftsmanship and design; see http://www.bahti.com/pataniaSam.html Sam's work continues to evolve as he challenges himself. Many silver and goldsmiths will figure out a way to avoid the difficult challenges that frustrate and perplex, but Sam dives straight into that buzz saw and the results...well, look for yourself. Is there a name for this style? No, but it is a style that cannot be ignored. The term 'couture jewelry' only begins the discussion. High carat gold, sterling, platinum...combined with style, high fashion and unique character. For more information on Sam's work, see: http://patania-jewelry.ganoksin.com/blogs/ or http://www.modernsilver.com/patania.htm Please join us for a fun, and informative hour with Sam.
