Sylca Jewelry
- Biography/Statement
Nature meets design in each piece through the use of recycled wood, natural dyes and fibers and coconut shell. The result? Big rings, mesmerizing necklaces, and arm party-worthy bracelets that are not only powerful and transformative, but also completely wearable, thanks to lightweight materials like ultra-durable bayong wood (a favorite of style icons like jewelry maven Iris Apfel) and vegetable fibers like abaca. The super stylish - and eco-friendly! - Jewelry and accessories have been picked up by Anthropologie, South Moon Under, and Francesca's, among other wholesale and private clients nationally and internationally.
We draw our inspiration for our designs from the natural elements around us to create geometric patterns and unique shape. Each collection is designed in the US and then brought to life by our artisans in the Philippines. These Artisan Collectives carefully handcraft each component using natural elements such as wood, compressed paper, and shell, plus complementary elements, such as hand molded resin, to bring the design together. We choose materials that are easy to work with and can be molded and shaped into the unique pieces that make up jewelry collections. Combined together, natural color variations add a feeling of texture, while our molded resin pieces add intense color that truly empower the wearer to beautiful, confident and create their own style.
