Why shop handmade?
There is no shortage of jewelry. Shein, Temu, Aliexpress, Amazon, scammers, drop shippers, everyone has it. But landfill-core costume jewelry is what it is: as disposable as it is forgettable.
Plastic cracks and fades. Mystery metal turns you green and comes with prop 56 warnings (Yikes!). Fast fashion hasn’t been fashionable for years and putting your $$$ in the trash is gauche.
You deserve something real. Wear a work of art. Invest in an heirloom. Hold a piece of the Earth’s deepest depths in your hands.
And best of all: support a real artist. In this golden age of scamming and resellers, knowing who your jewelry comes from is peace of mind and a quality guarantee.
Only handmade lasts.
Brass and 24k Gold Plate Earrings with Myanmar Blue Sapphire
Over the years, I’ve heard one thing consistently. “Handmade is just too expensive.” And sometimes, they are right. Handmade items are/can be more expensive than mass produced items. But that is exactly why!
They are HANDMADE! Someone actually MADE them!
Many are limited batch pieces. You are getting something special! I handpick all of the stones. I take the time to inspect them carefully design around them. I always use quality metals.
Not one of a thousand. One of a Kind.
It takes more time to create them.
You can’t compare handmade with mass produced. The pieces are made completely differently, packaged differently, etc.
I even think of local restaurants’ food as “temporary art”! And it is! You are buying ART! You help keep the arts alive when you support your local and handmade businesses! And you can feel good about yourself knowing that you helped support a small business!
I can say from experience, we really do do a happy dance when you order from us!
