I have the best job there is! Enabling artisans around the globe to make a living doing what they love. Collaborating with them to develop exclusive handcrafted treasures that you love. All of you certainly love our annual Jack-O’-Lantern!

Weronika and I have been working on this design for nearly two years. It is absolutely our best one yet. As you explore our latest product collections, please do think of the many artisans who infuse a bit of their spirit into each work of their hands. Know that you touch their lives. Thanks for allowing all of us here at Uno Alla Volta to touch your life.

I have been a member of the handcraft community for nearly two decades now.

Yet it is still a thrill to discover a new artisan and to get to know the person who pours her heart and soul into each work of her hands.

Allow me to share this joy with you. 

Cynthia of California, a master of many media, is inspired by all kinds of trees. While discovering our newest treasures, you will find her tree sculpture, hand twisted from fine copper wire. In addition, you’ll find another beautiful tree from Cynthia rendered in fused glass.

Lorena of Murano, an old friend, has a beautiful eye for color, and loves working beside her mother and sister, keeping alive the traditions of their ancestors, bringing beautiful murano glass and crystal beads together in her latest stretch bracelet design.

Anne of Appalachia, loves bringing together textures and colors when she designs jewelry, but what she loves the most is being blessed with the opportunity to create purposeful,
meaningful work for herself and the five young women she employs.

Thank you for allowing our artisans to touch your lives.
