I have always been impressed and inspired by the artisans of the American Southwest. When I first visited Santa Fe, New Mexico nearly 20 years ago, I was amazed at the endless array of stunning jewelry and art. It was sold on street corners and from richly appointed shops, with intricate pieces appearing in either venue. Sterling Silver and Turquoise were prominent, appearing in a myriad of designs, shapes and forms with each craftsperson defining their own method and legacy. The jewelry compelled you to touch it, to wear it. When you did, you instantly felt connected to the Southwest’s vibrant culture, full of history, ingenuity, and unrelenting spirit.
Southwest Designs was born from this energy. When my husband and I began to spend an increasing amount of time in Las Cruces, New Mexico, I was compelled to design and make my own Jewelry, drawing inspiration from the vast artistry around me.
I believe that jewelry should stir your spirit and make you feel alive. To this end, I continually seek out materials that are eye-catching and uncommon, then produce a design that showcases the featured elements. Each piece is painstakingly crafted and no two are identical. I make Jewelry that is beautiful, bold, and expressive. Jewelry that is enlivening to wear.
Southwest Designs Jewelry reflects my image of the American Southwest -- I hope you’ll share it.
