Sibilia’s jewelry is very personal contemporary jewelry which does not follow trends.  It is a handmade product that is constantly evolving.  The main objective of Sibilia’s jewelry is for the piece to be the focal point not an accessory.  Sibilia’s jewelry is sold mainly in the United States, Canada and Japan.  It is also sold in Hong Kong, Singapore, Israel Germany, England, Belgium, Italy and Spain.

All of Sibilia’s pieces have a characteristic movement to them.  Sibilia incorporates color and even sound to her beautiful designs.  Below is one of Sibilia’s most popular bracelets; the “Calder Cuff.”  The “Calder Cuff” was created in honor of the American sculptor Alexander Calder, famous for his mobiles with organic forms.

Tibetan jewelry is among the most finely crafted in the world today.  Tibetan artisans incorporate Buddhist designs in their work. Skilled artisans have utilized the same techniques used for generations to create the most gorgeous silverworks.  

Tibetan jewelry has a rustic almost unfinished look to it, and it is prized all over the world; and never massed produced.  Mostly all of Tibetan jewelry has symbolic meaning with Sanksrit inscriptions or Buddhist symbols imprinted or formed into the metal by a handcrafted process called Repousse.

According to Maya Quiche mythology, Ixchel, the Moon Goddess and consort of Itzaman the Sun God, was the patron of weaving. She was depicted sitting in profile, with one end of her loom tied to a tree and the other around her waist. Today, women in the highlands of Guatemala weave the finest textiles in exactly the same way.

Mayan women almost exclusively use the back-strap loom.  All types of fabric are woven on this loom, most specifically, the huipil or traditional blouse of the Mayan woman. The corte and the huipil are part of the traje or traditional dress of every Mayan woman. A huipil tells us about the woman who wove it and the woman who wears it; it tells us the story of who she is, where she is from, her social and marital status, her religion, her power, and something about her personality.

A well-woven huipil can last 20 to 30 years before it's sold at market and starts a second life as a rag, quilt, or handbag.   Below a unique and “one of a kind” handcrafted bag from our collection of huipil bags from Guatemala.
