Handmade Jewelry with Meaningful Design
Turchin Jewelry was founded in 2006 by Tommy and Theresa Turchin, who began creating handcrafted designs on their kitchen table. Our journey started with mala beads purchased from Tibetan monks, inspiring us to incorporate wisdom and compassion into our work. Over the years, we transitioned to using the ancient Lost Wax Casting technique, allowing us to craft unique pieces from silver, gemstones, and gold. Each item is meticulously handmade in the USA, reflecting our commitment to quality and artistry. We specialize in lariat necklaces, wrap bracelets, and custom designs that combine meaningful symbolism with wearable elegance. Our collections feature natural elements like labradorite, garnet, and pearls, chosen for their protective and grounding properties.We offer a personalized approach to jewelry-making, enabling clients to collaborate on bespoke pieces tailored to their vision. With every creation, we aim to empower individuals through designs that resonate with strength, love, and personal significance. Our dedication to craftsmanship and customer satisfaction has sustained us since our founding. By blending inspiration from nature, spirituality, and architectural forms, we continue to craft jewelry that tells a story and stands the test of time.
