  Jewelery

  All of our unique, hand-made sterling silsee jewels are made by hammering, burnishing and repoussé work, techniques applied by our artisans to materialize exquisite designs. Our work is inspired by pre-Columbian, araucanian jewel designs of South American origin. Materials such as beginning-of-the-century aboriginal weavings, magic amulets and religious reliquaries have been adopted and given a new value. We use and select semi-precious stones, taking into consideration their color, size and cutting.
