Jane Diaz has collaborated with Nepalese silversmiths for approximately 30 years. Her designs are developed through a longstanding creative relationship with craftspeople in Nepal, where traditional metalworking skills continue to be practiced by hand. Working from Diaz’s drawings and ideas, skilled artisans form jewelry from blocks of silver and gold, milling the metal into plates and wire and constructing pieces by hand. Diaz describes her mission as helping sustain these time-honored craft traditions while bringing her own varied inspirations into the designs.
Their unique design blends cultural-inspired aesthetics with modern elegance, making them a standout accessory for both everyday wear and special occasions. Lightweight yet eye-catching, these earrings effortlessly elevate any outfit with their striking and sophisticated look.
