Salt & Steel is an independent jewelry studio creating sculptural pieces inspired by organic forms, weathered surfaces, symbolic imagery, and the quiet beauty found in natural materials.
Working primarily with sterling silver, brass, mixed metals, and natural stones, the studio creates jewelry that feels elemental, expressive, and deeply personal.
Based in New Orleans and led by artist and metalsmith Tiffany Chana Asraf, Salt & Steel combines traditional metalsmithing practices with a contemporary point of view. Each collection explores metal as both a craft and an artistic medium, transforming sculptural ideas into wearable objects made in small batches.

Craftsmanship
Why Handmade Matters
Every Salt & Steel piece begins at the jeweler's bench rather than on an assembly line. Traditional metalsmithing techniques allow each design to develop naturally, preserving the subtle details and textures that make handmade jewelry feel alive.
Working in small batches also allows the collection to evolve intentionally. Designs are refined over time instead of being produced in large quantities, helping retailers offer jewelry that feels genuinely distinctive.
For your customers, handmade isn't simply a production method. It's part of the story they take home with every piece.
- Small batch production
- Traditional metalsmithing
