Atelier Lirio

Materials

Verified information about the silk, glass, pearls, stones, and metal components used by Atelier Lirio.

Hand-Dyed Silk

Silk is the structural foundation of our jewelry, not a decorative accent. Atelier Lirio sources hand-spun un-dyed silk from a small-scale artisan producer in a rural Oaxacan village where sericulture is practiced as it has been for generations.

Silk drapes close to skin, weighs almost nothing on the body, and softens gradually with wear. Keep silk away from prolonged water exposure and perfume.

Czech Glass

Czech glass seed beads are produced in the Bohemian region of the Czech Republic, a center of precision glassmaking for over 400 years.

Atelier Lirio uses vintage and contemporary Czech glass. We do not use plastic beads, acrylic, or resin.

Semi-Precious Stones and Pearls

Stones are selected for color stability, suitable hardness, optical behavior, and their structural role in a piece. Freshwater pearls are natural material and minor irregularities are part of their formation.

Only the verified materials listed on an individual product page should be understood as applying to that product.
