Custom Wire Wrapped Jewelry Made in the USA
Treasure Tree Wire Wrapped Jewelry was founded in 1998 by Mary and Robert McIntire, a husband-and-wife team dedicated to transforming natural materials into wearable art. With Mary's expertise in cutting and polishing stones and Robert's mastery of wire wrapping, we specialize in creating custom jewelry that reflects each client's unique story. Our process begins with sourcing rough stones from global locations, including closed Virginia mines, which we cut, shape, and polish using diamond tools before framing them in sterling silver or 14k gold-filled wire. As a veteran-owned business, we take pride in our heritageRobert served in the U.S.Navy during the Vietnam era, and Mary's family has a multigenerational military background. We prioritize customer collaboration, working with gem and mineral clubs across the U.S. to discover rare materials. Our commitment to quality craftsmanship and personalized service has earned us recognition at regional festivals and juried artisan showcases. Every piece we create carries the story of its origin, whether from a family heirloom stone or a unique geological find. We operate from our Virginia studio, offering both in-stock treasures and bespoke commissions that celebrate individuality and natural beauty.
