About

Welcome to Artisans Atelier at BODY BLISS Factory Direct, Sedona's unique and colorful jewelry store with handcrafted one of a kind jewelry pieces, crystal hangings & energy wands. The name Artisans originates from the Italian language. "An artisan (from Italian: artigiano) is a skilled manual worker who makes items that may be functional or strictly decorative, including furniture, clothing, jewelry, household items, and tools. Artisan jewelry dates back as far as 7000 BC, when gold and copper began to be sculpted to adorn the human form, and the practice continues today. Although rarely price-competitive with machine-made items, artisan handmade jewelry is prized for its uniqueness, variety, and beauty. Reflecting the talents of the artisan onto the wearer, the broad spectrum of artisan jewelry is available to provide satisfaction to royalty, rock stars, and "everyday folk." Thousands of jewelry artisans exist around the globe. Some fine examples of artisan jewelry can be seen at museums" (Source: Wikipedia) Artisans-Atelier at BODY BLISS Factory Direct is Ajija U. Schaefer & Chanda U. Schmidt, the two owners of the company, who design and create often unusual and beautiful jewelry out of crystals, gemstones and pearls: "We are committed to unique handcrafted one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces that create beauty, balance and harmony for the wearer. We make jewelry right on the spot in the store: earrings, pendants, necklaces and bracelets." Artisans Atelier uses handpicked, high quality and often rare gemstones, crystals, natural beads and pearls with silver, gold and copper to create jewelry designs for all occasions and life situations.
