I see some new faces around here, so it feels like a good time to do another introduction! If you saw the last one, this one might be better. 👀👩🏾‍🏭🐊

I’m Sarah Chamorro, an Afro-Latina, Garifuna-Honduran artist and self-taught metalsmith based in New Orleans. 🇭🇳

I spent most of my life between New Orleans and Honduras, growing up between places, cultures, and different ways of seeing the world. That sense of existing between worlds has found its way into my art, where I’m constantly exploring the space between ancient symbols and modern imagery.

I’m still figuring things out, still experimenting, and still chasing the ideas that won’t leave me alone. There’s SO much more I want to create, and I’m excited to bring you along for the ride.

It’s still wild to me that people connect with my work so genuinely. That something I felt so strongly pulled to create can evoke that same feeling in someone else. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for being here and feeling that pull, too. 🖤 Now I wanna know who’s here! Are you an artist, a jewelry collector, someone who loves all things weird and wonderful, or just a curious soul who stumbled across my work? 👀 Tell me a little about yourself in the comments!

Welcome to my little corner of the internet. 🐊

There’s something different about wearing something that someone had to actually figure out how to make. Any given handcrafted piece was once just an idea. Then it was thought up, dreamed about, sketched out, constructed, maybe failed, maybe frustrating as hell, redesigned, taken apart, tried again… until eventually, somehow, it all came together. 👩🏾‍🏭🐊🐦‍🔥

Built through a hundred little steps, thank you to everyone that appreciates, buys, shares, and supports what I make, I really couldn’t do this without you 💚✨
If you haven’t gotten a chance to check these out yet, they’re on the website, but they’ve already started finding their homes. Go take a closer look while you can 👩🏾‍🏭🐊

I just realized these are ALL from this year?? Seeing them all together is kinda wild because every piece started as a completely different idea. And I’m still not done!
Which one would you have stopped to look at first? ✨🐊👩🏾‍🏭

Last minute video of a ring that sold 2 hours after I made it.

Your statement ring collection just found its apex predator. ✨🐊😳

Our Gator Bite Rings bring the bite of the bayou to your jewelry collection, with an alligator-inspired design that wraps around the finger with its mouth open at the bite. Each ring is available in jeweler’s brass or .925 sterling silver and comes in sizes 6, 8, and 10.

Designed and made for the ones who like their jewelry with a little more attitude and a lot more bite!

And this is only the beginning… 👀 More bite rings are on the way, including Catfish Bite and Sphinx Cat Bite designs!!

I’d never seen a jewelry design that layered one pendant directly on top of another… so I made one. 🤷‍♀️
Before today, only 4–5 Double Deck necklaces existed out in the world. Now there are 8.

If you scroll back far enough, you’ll find the very first one I made — and I was SO proud of that thing. 🥹😂 It’s wild seeing how the design has evolved since then. See a stone you don’t recognize? Ask me or guess which one it is in the comments!
