San-atelier is an artisan atelier crafting collectible sterling silver jewelry through traditional metal chasing, 24k gold foil inlay and vegetable-tanned leather carving.
Explore a selection of hand-engraved cuffs, rings, objects, and ornamental designs. Some pieces are available to order in standard configurations, while others are made individually upon request.
Inspired by Eastern culture, nature and mythology, each piece is shaped slowly through traditional metalworking techniques.
Every line is shaped by hand. Through repeated hammering, engraving and finishing, flat metal gradually becomes texture, relief and form.
METAL CHASING · HAMMERING · GILDING · HAND FINISHING
Every line begins with a tool, a hammer and repeated movement.
Contrasting metals bring light, depth and warmth into the surface.
Subtle irregularities and traces of use become part of the object’s character.
Inspired by traditional Chinese water patterns, Ripple transforms flowing water into hand-engraved silver textures. Gold catches the light across the surface, like sunlight moving across water.
