Arte Fact Jewels
Hand-made Arte Fact Jewels are intuitively made with quality, simplicity and beauty as central design motives.
At Arte Fact Jewels, natural materials and organic designs are key words. Stones are sourced as much as possible directly from the prospector who finds them or the lapidary who cuts and polishes them. More and more, the stones will be of local origin as B.C. has many beautiful stone resources that are not familiar to the general public and which are worthy of attention.

Working with the Beauty of Nature
In the Arte Fact Jewels studio, Nature is always present. Arte Fact Jewels designs emphasize the Beauty and Energies of materials formed in Nature.
