Process
Ana approaches the design of each piece the way she would a sculpture:
working by hand, sketching her ideas until she has a design in mind and then
tirelessly working every angle of the piece until its complete. This thoroughness
in shaping a piece, to an artistic model in her mind, and to the perfect lines of the
female form, is apparent in all of her work. Her unique approach to jewelry,
treating it to radical new design techniques while relying on one artisan to shape
each piece from beginning to end, is one of the primary reasons that women with
exceptional taste everywhere gravitate to her work.
It needs to be stated that every one of these pieces is handcrafted using only the
most ethically sourced gold in the world. Gold that is mined irresponsibly is one
of the most worrisome aspects of the jewelry market today. It is an integral
aspect of our brand to work only with fair trade gold and naturally sourced stones
in the hopes that it will empower those producers who adopt fair practices and to
encourage those who are reluctant to do so.
