Hello!

My name is Susan Barton, I have been designing and creating jewelry for over 25 years. I have worked with fiber, clay and metal throughout my life and my love of jewelry always wins out.

archaic design began in 2005 when I wanted to sell my work globally. All of the jewelry you see on the site has been created by me in my studio.

I use many different mediums in my jewelry and love to experiment. I am a formally trained metalsmith and continue my education throughout the year taking and teaching classes whenever I can.

If you have any questions about any of my jewelry pieces please don't hesitate to ask!

Thanks, Susan
