Everything we make is handcrafted, and we are talking old-school hammer to the metal, no hi-tech machines type of handcrafted. It's hard work out here but the amount of time and effort that goes into every piece means there is a whole lotta love put in.
The handcrafted nature of our work means that it takes a little longer for us to make it, and no two pieces are alike. This makes your piece extra special, but please allow for minor differences between pieces.
The same goes for gemstones! We only use natural gemstones and no two gemstones are exactly the same, so please allow for minor differences.
