We look for beauty in inclusions, natural formations and textures in fine gemstones and rough rock, then highlight those elements in the way we cut the stones, fabricate the settings, and merge the two elements. We don’t polish away the work and fire that shaped the metal, and we keep our stones semi-raw. All Metals are oxidized sterling silver, 14k-24k yellow, rose, and white golds, and the unusual alloys that occur when we blend these metals together. Our jewelry starts out dark and then brightens over time. It can be brought back to its original darkness with a dip in our Anti-Polish – which is included with most purchases. Silver has always needed ongoing care. Our jewelry is no different but it’s care in the opposite direction.
