Hi! We are Emmanuelle and Harry and we are the owners and silversmiths of Iatzil shop.

Emmanuelle started to take silversmith lessons in 2010 and learned traditional Mexican techniques. She is making her own sterling silver wires and sheets for all of her jewelry. No big firm involved in the making of her material. She always makes curious littles pieces of jewelry and has a lot of imagination.
She studied languages at university and once she got her diploma, she went to travel the world and work in different countries: United Kingdom, Spain, Hong Kong, and Mexico. She finally settled down and left the teaching area for the silversmith passion.

Harry has a PhD in Archeology. He specializes in Pre hispanic designs for the shop and is also a specialist in Zapotec, Aztec, Mayan civilizations and ceramics. He makes the so unique etching designs for the shop. He spent a lot of time on excavations in France and in Mexico. He is now dividing his time between the workshop and his history passion.

We make all our pieces from A to Z, from the design, to making the wires and sheets and to the final jewel in our shop. We are in the South of Mexico, such a beautiful country.
We are inspired by our French cultural background but also by our different travels. Emmanuelle lived several years in Asia and other parts of the world, and Harry spent a lot of time in Paris for his studies.

We are proud to work from home and to be able to sustain our new little family this way. Thank you for trusting in our work and for visiting our shop.
