The Makers
West + Wilde is a family run silversmithing studio started by us, two siblings with a passion for entrepreneurship and making one of a kind jewelry. In 2020 Lottie became curious about silversmithing and decided to take a chance. What started small, turned into a deep passion for creating.
Six years later we are still here building West + Wilde together. We started at local farmers markets selling our handmade silver jewelry, teaching beginner silversmithing classes, learning everything as we went.

Our Story
West + Wilde is a family run silversmithing studio built around our passions, making wearable art. We are siblings who bonded over creating together. Making has always been part of how we connect.
In 2020 Lottie began exploring silversmithing as a hobby with no expectations. Early on we were fortunate to be mentored by a silversmith with over forty years of experience who taught us the foundations of silversmithing. What started as curiosity, quickly became a personality trait.
As the work grew Spencer began working within West + Wilde it's become something we built side by side. We started small at local farmers markets selling handmade silver jewelry and teaching beginner workshops. Talking with customers face to face, teaching people how to make jewelry, and learning how to run a small business from the ground up so been so rewarding and a huge blessing.
Every piece we make is designed and created in our studio using traditional techniques. We work primarily work with sterling silver, natural gemstones. West + Wilde is not about perfection, It is about learning as we go and building something meaningful with our hands.
