For my profile an excerpt form an interview:
“At Home With!” is visiting today with Mhaijik Guillaume, one of SLs most talented jewelers and vampireRyker: Hello Mhaijik! Welcome to "At Home With!" Thank you for chatting with me
Mhaijik: Thank you Ryker, this is an honor
Ryker: Mhaijik you are the owner and creator of the Jewelry Mhaijik Things & Guillaume pour homme brands. Tell me about the company, how it got started, and what sets it apart from the rest?
Mhaijik: I love jewelry. I loved it when I saw it in SL as well. In RL, I am somewhat of an artist, so I tried my hand at a necklace for myself. My first necklace was made July of 2004, a month after I joined. I tried making everything in here: buildings, clothing, and jewelry. I tended to do better at the jewelry and loved creating it. My jewelry is mostly from my imagination and heart. I see something in my mind and feel it - then try and make it here. I think my shops stand apart because I have a unique and unusual imagination and personality. I will make custom orders. I rarely turn anyone’s request away. I only would do that, if I know a jeweler in here who already makes the item, or I know would make it better than I could. I spend hours on the custom requests. The challenge justifies the work, solving the puzzle.
Ryker: I must say Giancarlo and I love your designs. Most people don’t know that you were the one that created our custom engagement rings. Are rings the pieces that you get the most orders for? What are your most popular creations?
Mhaijik: I think actually my Organic collection, a 2 piece set, necklace and ring. I did start out only making ladies jewelry. But my personal tastes are more androgynous and lean to masculine, so I gravitated to Men's Jewelry creation almost totally after being asked to convert some of my ladies designs to fit men. My most popular custom orders are for Partner rings, or wedding sets.

I have worked many years in retail in RL and know customer service is key. There are no words in my profile telling customers to not IM blah blah like some people. Feel free to leave me an IM or notecard.
I will make custom orders. I rarely turn anyone’s request away. I love a challenge.
All my creations should be mod yes, transfer yes and copy no, but I will upon request alter these perms
