Everyday Luxury
We know fine jewelry is special, and we believe you should wear it every day. Handcrafted responsibly in Latin America by master goldsmiths, designed to withstand the test of time. Pieces you'll love forever, minus the traditional pricing of fine jewelry. Ethical. Timeless. For you. Forever.

The Start
We founded our studio with the objective of rescuing our cultural legacy, heritage practices, and providing steady, well-paid jobs to the artisans who have kept our traditions alive.

Impact
We connect artisan talent from our developing nation with the international fashion market and its consumers. We work with our partners daily to improve production capacity and good practices, steadily increase their incomes, and to help them build stable businesses.

Materials
We believe that businesses can employ sustainable practices, locally-sourced and repurposed materials are used by our artisans whenever possible.

Design
We are passionate about making our craft with love, rescuing our culture, and supporting local talent. We draw inspiration from our cultural heritage and its clash with our contemporary surroundings to create a singular aesthetic: a clean, architectural style balanced with elements of Pre-Columbian art and modern design. When worn, each piece is meant to be defined by its wearer, creating synergy and evolving together.
