Please note: We cannot work with heirloom gems or stones with sentimental value, as there is always a risk of damage during the setting process.

WHAT IS SISU?
SISU (see'-soo) is a term that describes inner strength, resilience, and determination, especially when facing challenges. It’s about pushing through adversity with bravery and tenacity, even when things seem impossible.
In both life and jewelry making, sisu means embracing the journey, imperfections and all. Like crafting jewelry, where setbacks are common, sisu is about adapting and continuing until you reach your goal. It’s the perseverance that turns challenges into meaningful accomplishments and creates something beautiful along the way.
