What is One Seed Designs?

One Seed Designs is a line of silver and stone jewelry inspired by the colors, textures, and feelings of the landscapes that surround us. One Seed Designs focuses on stone-forward, one-of-a-kind pieces with a special fondness for statement rings and bolo ties. Each piece is talisman to connect us back with the beauty and solidity of our environment. Each piece is slow-crafted by hand in Sarah’s Washington DC studio and is ready to accompany you on any adventure.

About the Artist

Sarah Wallace was born in the misty redwood forests of northern California but now calls DC’s Capitol Hill home. She learned her craft among the weathered peaks and rugged canyons of central New Mexico, and created One Seed Designs in 2020. Named after the one-seed juniper (Juniperus monosperma) One Seed Designs is a line of silver and stone jewelry inspired by the colors, textures, and feelings of the landscapes that surround us (with a particular fondness for the high desert).

When not at her bench, you can find Sarah looking for toads in area waterways, complaining about the humidity, and desperately trying to find porcupines in with her husband and dog.

Sarah sits at a soldering station with a bottle of flux in one hand and a lit torch in the other. She's wearing glasses, a respirator, and work apron.
