Elementalsilver was founded in 2007, by owner Tom Pongpat. Tom is a firm believer is giving, not only to people but giving back to the earth. Tom was born in Thailand and lived there until he was the age of 10 when he moved to the United States. Even though Tom has lived most of his life in the United States, he still holds true to his Thailand roots and support his heritage.
“I started this company to model my closest-held value of giving back. As a company owner and as an individual, I have found this value to not only be sustainable but lucrative. It has been important, I’ve noticed, to truly listen to what is needed by others without making assumptions and then see where our aims can meet in the middle.” (Tom Pongpat, founder)
From the peaceful country of Thailand, we bring you small groups of artisans, who value their craft. Each piece is unique from one piece to the next. All pieces are handcrafted by Thailand artisans, all using Sterling silver and natural sustainable recourses (stones, minerals, and shells). Here at Elementalsilver, we promote the production of unique products, means that do not injure the earth, do not take advantage of workers and thus, integrate social responsibility with high quality and sustainability. We promote the validation of artisans, the beauty of the earth and being mindful of our actions, words and motives, making sure they align with awareness, compassion and growth. We offer competitive wages to the artisans who create these wondrous works of art.
Elementalsilver believes in giving back to the: world, country, community, environment, even individuals, giving is one of the most highly held values to have, hold and nurture. Our Give Back campaigns are not limited to a certain idea, country or endeavor, and we are open to receiving your suggestions. Please visit our current “Give Back” campaign.
