We Believe in the Magic of Handcrafted over Mass-Produced
When you purchase a handcrafted SWCreations piece, you're not only buying a bracelet or a pair of earrings, you are also making a statement...several at that. You are saying to the world that you treasure quality over quantity and that the conservation of culture, tradition, and individuality is of importance to you.
"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul."- Elder Uchtdorf
Although a substantial value of handcrafted goods lies in its quality, there's not a doubt that this industry supports the well-being of the environment more so than any big corporation could ever do so. Being that every piece in our collection is created by hand and nothing is mass-produced, our carbon footprint is significantly lower than any assembly-line production company. A profound statement that is also being conveyed when wearing our designs.
Something that often loses its value in mass manufacturing but rather is celebrated in SWCreations is the personalized experience and easy access the customer has to the creator. This can lead to fascinating insights about what you are purchasing. Unlike the one-size-fits-all culture of today, no one of our pieces is alike and they all provide a unique story to tell... as we all do. For example, a compelling story is behind the gorgeous Iolite Gemstone, also known as the "Viking's compass." known as such because according to GIA, Vikings would utilize the stone on overcast days to help indicate the location of the sun. Talk about a great conversation starter!
Another amazing gemstone we carry is the Amethyst Gemstone, which translates to "not drunk" in Greek. According to GIA, ancient Greeks believed that the Amethyst protected them from drunkenness. Because of this belief, the people of Greece would carve their drinking containers from this stone. So cool, right? Equally telling is the array of stunning beads, birthstones, Swarovski Crystals, and mother pearls we carry as well. These are handpicked and imported from every corner of the world to the US. Every piece is meticulously worked with intricate designs that only the hands of a true artist could create.
With 20 years under our belt, we take pride in what we do and put love and positive energy into each piece. This commitment manifests in our work, having an abundance of returning customers that appreciate the value of handcrafted goods as much as we do. This type of quality makes for sustainable, exotic, one-of-a-kind pieces that exude timeless elegance and style. Something a machine wouldn't be able to duplicate.
