olga prieto jewelry
I traveled to Mexico. Therefore, I shopped in Mexico. And, ladies, did I ever fall in love.
Her name is Olga Prieto, and she crafts jewelry from brass and silver, incorporating organic shapes with gems, wood, coral, and leather — along with other exquisite materials. From long-hammered brass chain necklaces to bold, adjustable rings and cuffs, she has a design to fit every woman.
Olga also adds a unique twist to her jewelry with polished gemstones of rose quartz, obsidian, quartz rock crystal, amethyst, and others, believing the healing properties of the stones bring life to her designs and the woman wearing them.
Her jewelry is available in nearly every major boutique in Mexico City, but for those of us residing north of the border, look to 77th Street Imports in Houston. They also have an online shop.
As for me, I returned home with the brass chain-link bracelet and the circular brass cuff. I’ve worn them often, garnering compliments and envy with every swish of my wrist.
