AVA Originals are made in our shop to the very highest level of craftsmanship and quality. Recognized by the Missouri Jewelers Association 6 times with the Craftsmanship Award, and with pieces winnning national and international design competitions, each AVA Original recalls the glory days of excellence in American workmanship.
The father-daughter team of Randall and Brandy Hurt are continuing a tradition begun over 35 years ago--when father Randall began his apprenticeship to three bench jewelers who had themselves learned by apprenticeship. Now a JA Certified Master Bench Jeweler, Randall uses this experience to create his and daughter Brandy's designs.
