Welcome to Silver Olé! I have lived and traveled around the world for more than thirty years and I have seen so many beautiful and unique gifts. It is my privilege to share these with you.

Silver Olé has been in existence for fifteen years and had its beginnings in sterling silver jewelry and pewter giftware. While living in Mexico City, I established a long-standing relationship with Mexican artisans and wholesalers. I personally select each piece of jewelry and pewter to ensure optimum quality.

• All the sterling silver is .925 in quality and made by the world-renowned silversmiths of Taxco, Mexico.

• Each piece of Mexican pewter is hand-crafted by artisans and polished to a beautiful shine to enhance your home and table.

I have expanded my inventory to include beautiful freshwater pearl jewelry from East Asia - and, as always, each piece is personally selected by me. You will not be disappointed by the quality and luster of the pearls.

A recent addition to Silver Ole' is jewelry from North American artists. I'm thrilled to offer brass jewelry by American designer Jan Michaels, Viva Bead jewelry and accessories, and jewelry fashioned from vintage silver spoons by Silver Spoon Jewelry. A very popular line are the ornaments and jewelry by The Rose Lady - actual leaves and shells dipped in silver.

May Silver Olé bring you as much pleasure as it does me.
