ABOUT
ARMOUR FOR THE SOUL
Antlervvitch Jewellery is a woman owned business by designer and creator, Rachel Quelch.
"Growing up in Riding Mountain, MB, has planted seeds of creativity along the way for me as an artist. I find lots of inspiration from the natural flora and fauna of the natural biosphere of that area. Ever since I was a child, I would make accessories and clothes for my dolls using rawhide from my dad's harvest and flowers and pebbles from the valley behind our log home."
"In 2010, I began making wire wrap Jewelry from raw crystal and antlers I had foraged along deer runs in the area. This is the origin of the name Antlervvitch."
"In 2020, I began studying silversmithing. I am honored to have learned from the accomplished and renowned Canadian silvermith, Karen Schmidt Humiski. Under her guidance and invaluable knowledge of this art, I found my passion."

"Antlervvitch Jewellery design inspiration comes from nature, indigenous silversmithing, as well as high fantasy art and Sci fi movies and graphic novels. Jewellery is a powerful talisman. The way you feel when you adorn yourself is powerful. The sensuality, the heightened sense of self. This is the natural healing and protective elements of the stones, silver and antler grounding you with the heartbeat of the earth."
"This is why, to me, jewellery is armour for the soul."
