Beautiful Sterling silver clip-on earrings from Pat Areias (of Madison Avenue); oval with black & silver geometric pattern.

Somewhere, someone is crafting something by hand, and it's just for you. It's unique, it's special, it's art.

Each piece of Pat Areias's artistry is hand rendered, one by one. As such, they may be similar, but they are not the same. “The essence of hand fabrication," Areias says, “is that every piece is made by an artisan as an original."

Areias's designs are a true reflection of her love and appreciation for both Latin and Scandinavian aesthetics, dating back to an era of silver designers from the 1930s and 1940s which originated in Denmark. As silver became scarce during World War II, argent veins running through Mexico lured Danish designers to America, where their pure designs and silversmithing finesse were shared with the native craftsmen.

Pat Areias sterling is not only recognizable in itself, but the name has become synonymous with quality. The provision of fine silver accessories and specialized customer service has proved a successful combination for the growing company.
