The Story Behind the Collection

Sometimes, life requires a leap of faith - a bold step beyond the confines we've constructed around us. That's the heartbeat of the Beyond Borders Collection, which resonates deeply with my own story. Born in the Southern charm of tradition yet blossoming in the lush expanses of Washington state, my passage from a 20-year career to a silversmithing journey has been anything but conventional.

Silversmithing emerged as a meditative escape, a protection from the storm of my past life. It brought me a whirlwind of happiness, something that years of societal-approved success couldn't grant. I found a sanctuary within the walls of my studio, where every emotion was distilled into a sterling silver creation - a magic of sort, turning my raw feelings into beautiful treasures in silver and stone.

In 2021, severing the ties of a well-worn career, my hands and heart fully embraced the life of a full-time silversmith - the creation of Silver Borders was ignited. Every piece I forge is interwoven with this narrative of liberation and self-discovery, worthwhile for every soul seeking meaning beyond their own borders.

True to the spirit of Beyond Borders, each piece is hand-forged, celebrating every link and detail. The process is a labor of love and precision, ensuring harmony between form and function. The Pathways spinning rings that calm the restless, compass studs that guide the adventure-seeker, and the Horizon Earrings that call to the wild-hearted.

The craftsmanship of each item like the Beyond Borders Handmade Chain, from creation to the final polish, involves weaving integrity, strength, and individuality into the sterling silver itself. Inspired with the storytelling of journeys – both mine and potentially yours - every piece is an invitation to write your own chapter of exploration.
