Jim Hayes
lapidary and silver jewelry

This year I’m using more Oregon agates and jaspers in my lapidary work. In the shapes I cut, I strive to bring out the best landscape, plume or dendrites from the rough stone. In my metalwork, I enjoy creating a setting complimentary to the patterns in the stone, while also incorporating both formal Asian or casual, organic designs.

Jim and Linda Hayes share their studio.

Directions: From Newberg, follow Hwy 240 to Yamhill. At the blinking light at the intersection with Hwy 47, turn right. Go 5 blocks, passing the high school on your right and turn left at the green sign that says Pike Rd./Menefee Park. Look at your odometer and go 4 miles out Pike Rd. Turn right up the gravel Hacker Rd. for about 300 feet. The studio and house are on the left in the oak trees. Park by the green metal barn.

From McMinnville, take either Westside Rd. or Hwy 47 through Carlton to Yamhill. At the blinking light, turn left and follow the directions above. From Forest Grove, go south on Hwy 47 to Yamhill. At the Shell station, take a sharp right onto Pike Rd. and follow the directions above.
