Artisanal Stewardship
Handforged Jewelry
Rooted in historical craftsmanship, tailored for modern wearers.
New Life For Old Bones
Zanny believes the process behind each piece is just as important as the final design. She works exclusively with recycled gold and silver, forging, pouring ingots, rolling, and shaping components by hand in her studio. This approach allows scrap metal from previous projects to be refined and reused, giving new purpose to existing materials while minimizing waste.
Upon request, heirloom metals and stones can also be reimagined into contemporary pieces designed to be worn and treasured again. Every adornment is created with both beauty and longevity in mind, balancing thoughtful design with durability to ensure each piece can endure for generations.
Ethical Sourcing
In addition to her responsible metal practices, Zanny often works with antique and post-consumer gemstones. Whenever possible, she incorporates stones and rough material from her great-grandfather’s collection, collaborating with artisanal lapidaries in the United States to bring them to life.
Any newly sourced stones are conflict-free and obtained through transparent, ethical suppliers. Natural diamonds are vetted through the Kimberley Process, while lab diamonds are made using 100% renewable energy.
Handwoven Textiles
Created with intention, honoring traditional craft through enduring design.
Mindful Production
Zanny’s woven adornments are made entirely from natural fibers, sourced through a network of small-scale producers, including locally farmed wool, fair-trade cooperatives, and Indigenous shepherds in Mexico and the Four Corners region of the United States. Wool is an exceptionally durable fiber and one of the most sustainable materials used in textiles, naturally returning to the earth as part of the carbon cycle and enriching soil as it decomposes.
Working with artisan-made yarns results in textiles rich in character and quality—pieces that not only look and feel exceptional, but also support a more environmentally conscious approach to making.
Woven Meditation
For Zanny, weaving is a quiet meditation in repetition and rhythm. Each movement of the hand invites patience, presence, and reflection, transforming simple fibers into something thoughtful, tactile, and deeply human.
Textile weaving is one of the earliest forms of human expression, and through the years it has remained a powerful connection between utility, tradition, and storytelling. She uses each tapestry to convey a message of her ancestry, life experiences, and inspiration.
