Throughout my life, I've found solace and expression through the art of crafting jewelry, a means to both nurture my creative spirit and make a living. But as the years rolled on, my passion began to wane, and my craft started feeling more like a job, devoid of the excitement it once held.
All of that changed when my husband, Ian, joined me on this journey a few years after our marriage in 2009. Our collaboration and fresh approaches to design rekindled the spark within me, transforming my work from mere labor into a true artistic endeavor. It was during this time that an idea ignited in us, one that would infuse artistry back into the jewelry we were destined to create.
Together, we made a pact to embrace the exhilarating ride that life offered, striving to give our best in everything we do and seeking meaning and fulfillment in every corner of our existence. In my personal quest for this fulfillment, I unearthed a deep-seated passion for horses, and with Ian's unwavering support, we began crafting jewelry that would capture the profound connection between these majestic creatures and the hearts that adore them. Thus, our artistic journey together led us to the incorporation of inlaid horsehair in our unique, handcrafted artisan jewelry.
With over two decades of experience in jewelry making and Ian's ten-plus years of expertise in silversmithing and CAD design, we've been able to create a body of work that fills us with immense pride. Our dedication is clear: to fashion jewelry that allows horse lovers to carry the spirit of their cherished equine companions with them always. We apply our finely honed skills as jewelers to create precious keepsakes that serve as perpetual reminders of the everlasting bonds we share with these incredible creatures. Our pieces encase a small lock of YOUR horse's hair, preserving it within wearable art designed to withstand the rigors of life's adventures.
The discovery of the profound connection between humans and horses has left us nearly speechless. In loving these magnificent beings, we've found unparalleled joy and fulfillment, intertwined with the heartache that accompanies the loss of a beloved friend. Knowing this, we approach each and every piece of jewelry we create with distinct honor and reverence. We are truly grateful for the opportunity to craft these tangible symbols of eternal bonds.
