Samonte Cruz Studios

Hi! My name is Samonte I am a metalsmith, artist, and educator. My passion is using traditional goldsmithing techniques to handcraft custom jewelry, amulets, and small scale sculptures by incorporating materials and symbols that embody deep meaning for my clients. I also create THEY THEM sweatshirts & swag to help folks assert their pronoun preference. My goal is to empower, uplift, and connect people of ALL genders through the power of creative self-expression. I believe in the right of self-determination for all queer, trans, black, indigenous, and people of colour on our planet. How did a Filipinx kid from Virginia become a goldsmith in the mountains of British Columbia? Find out here.

Sustainability
