Pyrrha

Established in 1995, Pyrrha has been committed to handcrafting sustainable jewelry with meaning as a reaction to the proliferation of factory made, mass produced fashion jewelry that is so common in the industry. They feel it’s necessary to create things that will be kept.

Inspired by a collection of Victorian wax seals we found while digging through a box of old letters at an estate sale, their talismans were born from a desire to give the fragile antique seals new life and permanence. While they design and create all of the imagery for their pieces, they are rooted in that original connection to the past. They celebrate the natural imperfections of the talismans by incorporating original elements like cracked borders from the antique wax seals and proudly show the maker’s hand.
