These pieces, which are never duplicated, are made of silver and 18-karat gold and inlaid with gemstones and pearls. The jewelry is subtle, designed in a fashion to not overpower the wearer.
Krantz designs all the jewelry at her 33 N. Market St. studio. She sells the pieces next door at Zaruba & Zaruba, a jewelry gallery owned by Doug Zaruba and son, Andrew.

The Official paper work at the state of Maryland shows you Douglas Zaruba as being
principle owner of the Zaruab and Zaruba Gallery. it shows Andrew
Zaruba owner in March of 2011. The info you have on your own Doug
Zaruba LInkedIN Pages showing you as President of Zaruba and Zaruba
LLC. also.
No one said you are Andrew Zaruba. but you are if nothing part/full
owner in the Zaruba and Zaruba Gallery, thus making you at the least
responsible for your partners delinquent actions. and believe me Doug
if it was a few hundred dollars i would have let this go and not
dealt with this extreme headache since June of 2010, but as the
number of artists he has screwed over grown so has the monetary
amount which easily exceeds the 12K US$.
as to you not keeping in touch with your son, I had heard from one of
the artists in touch with you that Andrew was living at your house in
Maryland the begining of 2011? maybe this was not correct, but if so
then you were in contact with him till recently? yes the whole
country is out of balance, and the economy is doing badly, many
people, jewelers and artist are having a hard time, people like
Andrew are just making it ever so more difficult for the rest of us who
go by the book and keep it honest. in the field 99% of our business
is built on TRUST. where do you think the Zaruba name stands on that
issue ? I googled Andrew and found him on Face book and etsy running
a business now out of upstate NY. he won't respond to the telephone.
below you say you are not responsible for the new owner's mistakes,
in July-August of 2010 one of the phone calls I made to the Zaruba and
Zaruba tele Number, (my weekly phone call) you answered I asked about
my work, you replied Andrew No longer works here and that you were
back from retirement to take care of the business, I asked if my work
was there, you replied yes it's in our volt and that you will pass on
the message to Andrew that I wanted my work and any payments post
shipped out right away. In October -November 2010 when we were able
to get through to you via my wife’s phone ; To your credit you were
able to persuade Andrew to ship my work 30K US$ back, the payment for
sold work never showed up, still has not, every week I would call, he
would never pick up. till his phone stopped working. so forgive me for
not trusting or believing you.)
**So just by looking the info from the past seems there is paperwork "official "and people "unofficial" in the Fredrick area that show you at least to have some involvment in this Zaruba and Zaruba Buisness. by disolving/liquidating/forclosing the buisness and starting anew with a new name (vortex 13 )but the same address with some of the same employees doesn't change the history of the company.all this was happening in 2010 and before, I place the original report in Jan.2011. you are rebuttling in 2014?
Sadly your Son Andrew still has not owned up to me with his payment delenquincy .
