ABOUT THE ARTIST

Chrissie is a Hong Kong born designer, who moved to England at the age of 8. However as an American, she has always spent time travelling around western USA. With family based in Arizona, much of her inspiration

comes from the Native American heritage of the area.

ABOUT THE JEWELLERY

Tuwa is the Hopi Native American meaning for Earth. Many of the designs are inspired by nature, and are heavi-ly influenced by Native American folklore and beliefs.

The jewellery is mainly made from sterling silver, often with brass highlights.

ABOUT THE STONES

Various semi-precious stones and beads are used, to add colour and natural beauty to the pieces.Stone pieces are one of a kind, as the stones are all individually sourced.

Most of the turquoise is from Arizona and Nevada, mined and cut by American miners and gem cutters.
