Art has long been a form of expression for Tina Kacz, who remembers getting into sculpting and painting when she was 10. She spent the 2010s crafting clay miniatures, a popular makers market find.  

“This latest foray into silver and copper began in 2022 to focus on the joy of creating once again. Romance and Worth is about seeing the value of romanticizing your life. You're worth it!”

On finding inspiration...

“The connection with the handmade. I will never stop learning and want to add glasswork, blacksmithing and fine woodworking to my skillset soon! I can make anything, it just might not be the prettiest the first time!”

Brand backstory:

“Building a brand that makes people see their moments in time and pensive thoughts as valuable has been the goal. I needed a project. I was already a mom to a beautiful boy and wanted more. I started silversmithing after my first miscarriage to get out of that darkness, then had two more losses while training, which really pushed me to dive into this."
