Mercedes Salazar × Tresefes

Mercedes Salazar is a Colombian jewelry designer whose work bridges craft communities, artisanal materials, and a deeply personal vision. This interview — published in Tresefes, May 2025 — traces her process: from the Wayúu communities of Putumayo to a collection inspired by tarot, from palm fiber to bronze, from jewelry to objects for the table.

What stays is the thread that connects it all: the idea that making something — really making it, with your hands and with others — is one of the most honest things a person can do.
