One of the products Mystic Knotwork sells is Made in America Anklets. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.
For more information about Mystic Knotwork and its American Made products see the following:
We thank you for supporting our mission to keep the maritime tradition of knotwork alive. Even the humble sailor bracelet can be a means to touch the past that stretches back centuries.
For our family it all started in 1939 when my grandfather worked on the McCormick line acting as a bosun's mate on cargo ships running between Argentina and New York City. In New York City, he Alton Beaudoin Showing a Knotted Frame in progresswould stay at the Seaman's Institute. After showing interest in knots, the retired captains and officers that were staying there showed him a few knots to work on while out to sea. Invariably upon his return, they would show him all the mistakes in his workmanship and through this schooling he learned the art. His skills were honed by weeks at sea and the stern eye of his skilled teachers. As the years went on, he developed talents nearly equal to theirs. Toward the end of Alton's time in the merchant marine, he was teaching Able Bodied Seamanship in the New York Harbor.
When World War II broke out, Alton went from a Bosun's mate in the merchant marines to a private in the US Army, soley because he wore glasses. He never talked much about his time in the Pacific Theater, but we all knew he had a rough time, not only because of the 3 purple hearts he earned.
After serving in World War II, he returned home with sad memories of war and loss of many friends. He didn't talk much about it, but he used is talent with cord as his escape from these memories.
By 1957, Alton had established himself as an expert in knotwork with pieces donated to the Smithsonian, he turned his artistic passion to a business selling the traditional sailor knot bracelet as well as fancier belts, sample boards, guitar straps, and bellropes. In fact, one of his bellropes was used for more than a decade aboard the USCG Barque Eagle.
Here is an article about him from October of 1976 in The New London Day
All of this history was passed to his sons and grandchildren. I remember clearly the weekend trips with my grandparents learning macram?, splicing, sennit work, and other fancy knotwork. My cousins and I used to race to see who could make twenty sailor knot bracelets the fastest. I didn't always win, but through the competition, we learned how to tie one knot excessively well. My childhood is definitely one that I treasure, Finished Nautical Frame Alton Beaudoin Mystic KnotworkI wish everyone could have experienced such a tight knit loving family.
Our whole family carries on the traditions started by my grandfather. My uncle ties macram? and sailor knots, but is better known for his castings of authentic knotwork. Because he casts in gold and silver, his artwork lasts more than a lifetime. My brother has applied what he learned directly to metal and has earned a reputation for his artistry. My sister translated her love for the sea and history into her career designing the Defender Co. online catalog. My father still works with me to help improve my splicing and keeps me humble with his attention to detail.
My wife and I continue the traditional skill of turning cord into art. Most well known are the white sailor bracelets, but with my wife and daughter we have added a modern flair adding color and patterns. In addition to sailor bracelets, we also make rope mats, table top centerpieces , wedding favors, and macram? work. My wife's macram? is so popular people have actually bought it right off her neck!
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about our family history and hope you enjoy your purchase. All of our work is American made here in Connecticut from supplies also found in the USA.
Sincerely,
Matthew Beaudoin

One of the products Natalie Frigo sells is Made in America Earrings. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.
For more information about Natalie Frigo and its American Made products see the following:
Natalie Frigo's passion is creating unique, handcrafted jewelry that treasures the extraordinary beauty in every client.
Sculpting all of the designs by hand in her lower Manhattan studio, Natalie personally attends to each detail using the ancient practices of metalsmithing and 'cire perdue' (also known as lost-wax casting). The organic forms are then cast and finished in New York City, marrying recycled metals with personally selected, ethically sourced gemstones.
Natalie's inspiration ranges from early metallurgy and textile design to recent architectural developments, culminating in a collection that is contemporary, but by referencing venerable artifacts, also feels timeless.
Ethical Jewelry
Conflict-free stones ensure that no person was forced to mine a stone in unsafe or illegal working conditions. All of our diamonds, for example, are individually tracked through their full chain of custody to ensure that ethical practices are used in mining, cutting and polishing. Ethically sourced goes beyond conflict-free - these gemstones are delivered from mines that provide a living wage, ensure safe working conditions and protect the environment by limiting dangerous chemicals and developing plans for restoring the land after mining is complete. Natalie chooses ethically sourced when available and is always seeking out new sources for these stones.
Recycled and reclaimed metals eliminate a tremendous amount of new pollution and contaminated water. An average, newly mined 18-karat gold ring (weighing less than an ounce) creates twenty tons (!) of waste, whereas a recycled ring creates almost none. Since recycled metal is as beautiful and timeless as newly mined and indistinguishable in its use as a raw material, the choice is a simple one.
Also, timeless jewelry like Natalie's helps reduce waste by giving you pieces that will last generations. Buy a few great pieces of jewelry that you will love for a lifetime instead of acquiring a drawer full of things you rarely wear and then forget about after a season.

One of the products Native American Market sells is Made in America Indian Jewelry. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.
For more information about Native American Market and its American Made products see the following:
For the past twenty years it has been very important for me to represent Native American made jewelry honestly and to deal only in authentic, fine quality merchandise. Our motto is: We bring the West to you.kim-in-store.jpg
Many people have asked me how I happened to be in the business of Native American jewelry. So here's my personal story:
I come from some of the original pioneers of northwest Montana. In 1883 Great-grandmother Maggie was the only white woman for many miles and she, her husband and five children had many personal encounters with the original settlers of the area- the Blackfeet Indians. I hope to write about their experiences one day.
One of their sons, my Grandfather Wallace, held many positions during his life. He was best known as undersheriff, but he also was a range rider, rounding up wild horses. He drove cattle and owned a saloon among other endeavors. As a child he was briefly kidnapped by some Indians, but fortunately it was just a game to them. He was a real Western cowboy.
Mother was born in Shelby when there was still no running water or electricity in town. She was named Garnet, after that beautiful wine red gemstone. Her hair was black and she was very dark skinned. (I take after my fair Scotch-Irish father.)
Anyway, all of my family lives west of the Mississippi. Mother wore turquoise and my sister, who lives in and absolutely loves, Arizona, always has too. So the west is in my blood, and the love of all things Native American made.
Enjoy perusing our offerings, and if you have any questions I'll do my best to answer them.
For more on why we chose to call our site Turquoise-Silver-Gold you can read our article on how these three items have been an integral part of the Southwest.
