A little about us...
Precious Ghost is a semi-custom collection of striking future heirlooms — for those who appreciate the classic, embrace the eclectic, and value devotion to craftsmanship.
Our jewelry is designed and made in-house in Nevada City, California. You can visit us at our showroom The Fates Fine Jewelry at 211 Broad St in downtown Nevada City.
At the heart of PG is our meticulously curated gemstone collection that has become the foundation of our jewelry. We focus on supply chain traceability, buying our gems in rough form as directly as possible from the source. We personally oversee the cutting process by working directly with trusted lapidary workshops, artisan cutters, and by faceting some of our gems here in-house, allowing us to shape one of the most eclectic and diverse retail sapphire collections for our clients.
As part of our hands-on engagement in our supply chain, we are often visiting mines, cutting workshops in source countries to not only better understand our supply chain but to continuously make improvements and build new and long-lasting relationships.
Our newest relationship is with a small-scale local gold mine in Nevada County, now supplying PG with locally mined gold that we are using in all of our jewelry going forward. The placer gold is sent to a refiner where it is purified to 24 karat, then returned to us. It is not co-mingled with other gold sources. This provides greater transparency into one of our most essential materials.
Behind the brand is owner and designer Sarah Williamson. A chance encounter at 19 led a restless creative to what she now considers her raison d'être — an area of study she has happily lost herself in ever since. Though antique jewelry, bold architectural work, and Art Deco design have long been her muses, her current work flirts with minimalism and fluid movement. These themes are explored alongside her lapidary work, ever-evolving and reflecting the breadth of techniques she has developed over the years. Precious Ghost is the result.
