It\u2019s been just 7 years since Dune Jewelry had only 200 sands in our Sandbank and we made every single piece of jewelry at my kitchen table. We\u2019ve grown dramatically from a one person, kitchen table business to a fully functioning jewelry manufacturer with over 22 fantastic employees. One thing that will never change though is that each piece of Dune is still handmade to order and handmade in the USA.<\/p>\n

In the Studio, Making Your Special Gift<\/h2>\n

Now I love coming to our studio every morning and looking at our Sand Artists\u2019 stations lined up and organized with the findings and the sands needed for the orders they’re working on. They take such care in making sure every grain of sand is contained and arranged the way you want it. In their training, they learn how to best work with the pink sands of the Caribbean, the rocky texture of the Amalfi Coast, and the pure white quartz found on the Gulf Coast of Florida. They know it\u2019s not just jewelry they are making, they are capturing memories.<\/p>\n

\"handmadeHandmade in the USA<\/h2>\n

Once your piece is created, it\u2019s handed off to our Packaging and Quality Control Specialists. They polish and label every piece with the highest quality Dune standards in mind. Whether it’s adding a gift message, soldering charms or gift wrapping for a special occasion, nothing gets by them until it\u2019s perfect!<\/p>\n

From the click of your mouse on our website to USPS delivering to your door, we work hard to ensure every order arrives in a timely manner. Our standard orders take up to three weeks to be created and packaged here in our studio. It\u2019s never too early to think about the gift you want to give that special someone, get searching our Sandbank and designs to find the memory you want to gift this Valentine\u2019s Day!<\/p>\n
