Gold as Ancestral Inheritance
Goldsmithing is more than a craft—it’s a calling deeply rooted in my heritage. The Philippines, home to the world’s second-largest gold deposit, has a rich history of master goldsmiths dating back thousands of years. Much of this tradition was erased from common knowledge, as countless gold artifacts were stolen and literally melted down to fund Spanish conquests and the oppression of Indigenous peoples. I’m committed to reviving and honoring our lost legacy through my work.
Pre-colonial Filipinx cultures believed gold carried ancestral energy, serving as protection at the body’s sacred thresholds—the nose, ears, and eyes—warding off malevolent spirits and connecting the wearer to the spiritual universe.
I’m humbled and inspired to continue this ancient legacy, channeling the spirit of my ancestors in every handcrafted piece.
The True Cost of Ethical Craft
I’m an independent, queer, trans goldsmith crafting every piece by hand — not mass-produced, not outsourced. My pricing reflects real material costs, a living wage for my labor, and a commitment to sustainability and ethical sourcing.
I don’t believe in inflated markups or exploitative production — just honest work, priced to support a small artist’s life and craft in a capitalist world that undervalues both.
A Note for My International Friends:
Please note that your country may charge customs duties, taxes, or import fees when your order arrives. These are set by your local government and are the responsibility of the buyer. I truly appreciate your understanding & support!
