When we started this adventure into reclaimed jewelry, it was never about a gimmick. It was all about the material and the color. Thanks to a good friend and great artist, Anthony Hansen( check him out at https://www.anthonyhansen.com/), we were introduced to car metal, and we fell in love with the colors and the patinas right away. In the beginning, we honestly didn’t care about the make or model of the cars. We’ve always loved old things, old cars, scrap metal, antiques, and the thrill of junking, but the cars themselves weren’t the focus at first.
It wasn’t until collectors started asking about the origins of each piece that a light bulb went off. That’s when the history and the stories became part of our journey. We started recording the makes and models of the parts we salvaged, and it opened up a magical new layer that brought so much joy into our work. Hearing people’s stories about their cars and the memories tied to them became a special kind of connection we could share through the jewelry.
Now we do our best to keep track of the cars we salvage because we love sharing that part of the journey. But at the end of the day, we’re jewelers and artists first. The world of classic cars is vast, and we’re not “that car guy!” who know every detail. Sometimes we find parts with no car around them, and sometimes the history is a guess from a junkyard friend. We’ve been corrected by many car enthusiasts, and we’re always learning.
In the end, we aim to give you authentic pieces with as true a history as we can. We’re sure we’ve made mistakes and might make a few more, but it has always been about the jewelry, the colors, and the designs. We’re jewelers, not "car enthusiasts". So feel free to ask questions, share your own stories, and teach us more about the amazing world of American automotive history. It’s a piece of the past we’re honored to preserve in our own way.
Here are some of our cars we have salvaged.
