A little bit about Equinox and me. I started working at Equinox Silver back when i was 17, and Equinox was 3, which seems a very long time ago now. Back then i was a Saturday girl and worked in the shop, cleaning and polishing and helping the customers (and then cleaning and polishing some more). Tim and Anna (the lovely owners) thought they had managed to get rid of me when i left to go to university in 2008, but when i came back 3 years later - degree in hand but entirely unemployed, they offered me Silvertips. Silvertips was their new custom jewellry making business and it is now my baby, and although i still spend much of my time polishing, its things i’ve made this time - which is infinitely more exciting!
