Tenzabelle Eugene

Tenzabelle is a line of unique, hand-crafted jewelry produced by Oakland-based artist and goldsmith, Savannah Hunter. Savannah Hunter specializes in creating sustainable custom jewelry designs, including engagement rings, wedding rings, and other bridal and ritual jewelry. Ritual jewelry marks significant rites of passage other than marriage: birth, death, separation, forgiveness, coming of age, and other momentous life transitions. As a green business owner and a member of Ethical Metalsmiths, Savannah follows green studio practices and seeks out ethically-sourced materials, including recycled precious metals and traceable, conflict-free or antique diamonds and gems. Savannah Hunter is a Fairmined Gold licensee and can produce engagement rings, wedding bands, and other custom jewelry designs in 14k or 18k Fairmined Gold upon request. Savannah Hunter will work with you personally to design a meaningful heirloom exactly to your liking. As a one-of-a-kind piece of sustainable jewelry, your custom design will consist of only the highest quality ethically-sourced metals and gems.

Established in 2014.
Tenzabelle’s original and artistic jewelry designs arise from a creative process inspired by Savannah’s many travels to far off places and her focused study of myth, magic, and art from around the world. Understanding that the first jewelry and adornments were amuletic objects used for power and protection, she created a jewelry line to inspire its wearers to tell their personal story through identification with significant forms, imagery, and materials. Tenzabelle jewelry is at once wild and elegant, delicate and empowering, meant to evoke a sense of strong, untamable feminine beauty that spans across all cultures and all eras.
