Jewelry connects you to a time, person, place or feeling. I create jewelry that brings its wearer joy, beauty, and sparkle every day.
Welcome, I’m Tiffany, jewelry designer, metal smith, and founder of Fire + Mineral jewelry. My jewelry making journey started back in 2008. I was spending the afternoon in a small town with my grandmother when we wandered into the local bead shop. I found a stone that I loved, the owner showed me how to turn it into a pendant with a pair of round nose pliers and I haven't stopped since. I loved being able to turn the earth's treasures into a wearable talisman. I’ve always been a rock hound so I started buying all the stones and studying their properties, meanings, and lore. As a nature lover, I incorporated all the things I'd find on my hiking and beach combing journeys. Lots of feathers and in the early day's nothing was off-limits. I even think there’s a bird bone necklace and a real dragonfly wing piece out there somewhere.
In 2012 I was fortunate enough to start pursuing my love of jewelry full time. I wanted to further my skills to match what I wanted to create in the world. I started taking metalsmithing and stone setting classes at a local art center. I recommend in-person classes to fast track your skills. There's so much to learn and I now teach workshops in my studio. I LOVE that Jewelry is a constant evolution and learning experience. I'm always evolving my craft.
We've partnered with One Tree Planted to plant a tree for every order you place.

What is Gold Filled?
Gold filled is an actual layer of gold-pressure bonded to another metal. Gold filled is not to be confused with gold plating as filled literally has 100% more gold than gold plating. Gold filled is much more valuable and tarnish resistant. It does not flake off, rub off or turn colors. As a matter of fact, anyone who can wear gold can wear gold filled without worries of an allergic reaction to the jewelry. Gold filled jewelry is an economical alternative to solid gold.
Argentium Silver?
Argentium silver is 100% recycled and purer, brighter and whiter than platinum, white gold or traditional sterling. It's hypo-allergenic, antibacterial and the perfect choice for those who are sensitive to metals and traditional sterling or white gold. Argentium silver is highly tarnish resistant, low maintenance, easy to care for and simple to keep clean.
How do I keep my jewelry shiny and new?
Since I use high-quality metals all you should need is a quick polish now and then. I recommend sunshine polishing cloths.
