Each piece is woven using a traditional technique called Peyote or Gourd Stitch, an off-loom weaving technique. This process dates as far back as Ancient Egypt, with many surviving pieces constructed from semi-precious stones such as turquoise or lapis.

We work with size 11 and size 15 Miyuki beads, using fine motor skills in a highly intuitive process. Much like knitting, once the first row has been created or cast on, the rest is meditative repetition. 

Once the piece is woven, it is then sewn into a metal frame designed and prepared in our studio. The frame must be perfectly sized, by careful adjustment, to the length of the woven piece. Styles made using this process are found in the Woven Collection.

Some pieces are woven, then cast in metal for greater durability with continuity of texture. These styles can be found in the Cast Collection.
