Tresa Vorenberg began her career as a silversmith’s apprentice with Richard Crawford in 1974. A passion for designing and hand making jewelry grew into the opening of her first designer jewelry gallery, “The Silver Bird,” in Kansas City’s prestigious Crown Center. Her commitment to representing additional top jewelry designers also began at that time. Following her desire to return New Mexico and be surrounded by the open desert, she rejoined her family in Santa Fe in 1981. Tresa continues to design and hand make jewelry as well as feature the work of over 30 local, national, and international designers at Tresa Vorenberg Goldsmiths on Santa Fe’s Canyon Road. Tresa specializes in fine quality custom work suited for the individual. She is a master of many techniques and works with a wide variety of gemstones, diamonds, and fancy colored diamonds set in karat golds. Her fresh contemporary style sets her jewelry apart. Her concern with the function and comfort of each piece is the cornerstone of her success. “What I love about jewelry making is the avenue it gives me to celebrate life and joy. I often have the privilege of looking into windows of people’s lives and getting to make something of significance to help them commemorate an event. It could be wedding rings, an anniversary or birthday gift, saying ‘Thank you, you’re special!’ or celebrating one’s self worth. It’s my own way of devoting my life to ‘The Good,’ and in some small measure, helping to bring it about.” Tresa muses. Tresa's Gallery / Events / Featured Artists / Gallery Artists |
