Who is Loyalsmith?

I'm Amy Bush, the designer and maker of Loyalsmith's lightweight and airy collection of silver and gold jewelry. 

Throughout my adult life I have pursued creative endeavors of the visual kind. A sampling: I was on a crew of 3 that built a 5,000 sq ft custom home on Camano Island, made handmade candles in New Mexico for a couple of years, and owned a store in Seattle which showcased local art and craft (JayWalk) for five years. 

Around 2001 I took my first metalsmithing class at The Pratt Fine Arts Center in Seattle and was instantly hooked. Class after class followed, culminating in a stint at the Revere Academy in San Francisco.  I subsequently carried around all of what I'd learned in notebooks and memory for almost 15 years before starting my own line of jewelry, Loyalsmith, in 2017.  

Every Loyalsmith piece originates from my hands on Camano Island where I live with my 14 year-old son, Gus, and our 2 cats (for those who knew Clover the snake, she has been re-homed after 7 years.  I sleep much better now). Each package I ship is sent with a handwritten note. 

My full life experience is behind every Loyalsmith design.  I'm am honored to see people wearing and gifting my work.
