Desert Bloom Retail

DESERT BLOOM

Desert Bloom is an original exploration of jadeite through a Southwest lens, pairing natural American turquoise with GIA-certified Type A Guatemalan jadeite in artisan-forged silver and gold.

Created by Arizona metalsmith Suzette Meyers of Bootleg Silver Co., the collection brings together heritage metalsmithing, natural gemstones, and one-of-a-kind variation in color, matrix, and composition. Designed as repeatable forms with collectible individuality, each piece is handcrafted and reflects the distinct character of the materials from which it is made.

Desert Bloom represents a contemporary interpretation of Southwestern adornment, incorporating hand-carved jadeite, American turquoise, forged sterling silver, and gold accents. The collection draws inspiration from the landscapes, traditions, and craftsmanship of the American Southwest while exploring jadeite outside its traditional design context.

As shared by a GIA-certified jade specialist:

“I’ve loved jade since I first encountered it, but seeing it worked in a completely original way—independent of traditional Asian influence—is rare. Paired with these materials, it feels as though they’ve always belonged together.”

From hand-carved jadeite florals to forged sterling silver settings, Desert Bloom reflects a marriage of heritage, artistry, and innovation rooted in the American Southwest.

Legacy in Metal. Heritage in Stone.
