Sourced from the Southwest.
For forty years we have travelled to New Mexico and Arizona, buying directly from makers on the reservations, in the pueblos and at the trading posts of the American Southwest.
All made by hand.
Every piece of jewellery we stock is made by hand. The Native American silverwork, the Sydney jewellers, William Spratling silver from Taxco and the Navajo weavings, pottery and sandpaintings included. Nothing in the range is machine made or mass produced.
Carefully selected.
We only purchase authentic pieces. We know the makers, the materials and their provenance. What is here has been chosen because it meets a standard we have held since the store opened.
