Pyrrha Jewelry
Pyrrha Design is a jewelry design and manufacturing company based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Founded in response[1] to mass-manufactured jewelry, Pyrrha produces jewelry based on antique wax seals[2] and heraldic talismans. The company fabricates their products from reclaimed gold, sterling silver, and bronze using the traditional hand-crafting techniques, that have earned them a strong celebrity following.[3]
