Welcome to Hearts of Silver Jewelry. My name is Maria and I am the creator and one woman show of this business. Creating and art have always been a small part of my life and recently I have decided to take it one step further by dedicating more of my time to creating for others.

Jewelry has always been a passion of mine so it seemed quite natural  when I first got started with silversmithing in 2020 during the pandemic, when so many of us picked up a new hobby. After watching countless silversmithing tutorials on YouTube, I became so passionate about the process of shaping and soldering metal, that I decided to take my education further and enrolled in the Art Institute of LI. That is where I met Marla, my teacher, my mentor and my ego booster. Marla taught me not to strive for perfection but to create every piece with heart. And this is how Hearts of Silver Jewelry was created. I am forever grateful for her patience and guidance. I have SO much more to learn and it will be years before I perfect this craft, if ever! But in the mean time I will create, with heart, these beautiful pieces of jewelry for you that I hope you will love as much as I love making them. Tiny imperfections and all.

Starting a new business at 53 is both crazy and scary but I cannot wait to see where this journey will take me. Hope you come along for the ride!
