This collection of unique, precious metal art and jewelry
was designed and individually hand-crafted by Paddy Lewis
Irwin at her metals studio in the shadow of Mt. Rainier.
Paddy combines her passion for art with the simple beauty of
the farmland and natural majesty that surround her and
inspire her creations.
An Enumclaw native and graduate of the Enumclaw High School
art program under Sylvia Neth, she has followed a diverging
career path always rooted in the arts. Currently a
substitute secondary teacher she is devoting more time to
the “jewelry side of things”. Past work with students in
metal shop and welding programs has evolved to focus on a
prior interest and experience in the jewelry business.
With a maturing family she has found the time to produce a
collection of jewelry with emphasis on the life of the
plateau…flowers, cattle, horses and the creative designs and
cultural arts of Northwest Indian artists. This line evolved
from commissioned works for devotees of her work as the
family has traveled nationally over the past fifteen years
showing and selling their Hereford cattle. “People would
notice different belt buckles, and pendants or key rings I
had made and ask were they could get similar ones…I would
explain I had done the work, and could make a custom piece
reproducing the likeness of their animal, brand or logo...
And it just turned into a small business with customers
throughout the northwest and in Texas, Arizona, Wyoming,
Colorado and the California-Nevada areas.
