Why This Means So Much
Every piece of our handmade jewelry, leather goods, and supply items is designed and produced right here in central Texas. This nomination is a celebration of the care, craft, and creativity that go into every product we make.
Being nominated as one of the best locally made brands in San Antonio is more than an honor — it’s a reflection of everything we stand for. From our signature leather keychains to hand-stamped charms, our products are made with intention, by hand, and with a whole lot of heart.
We’re proud to be a small business that keeps our production local — building jobs, collaborating with fellow makers, and contributing to the creative economy of San Antonio.
