About Us
In 2003, my Aunt and Godmother handed me a gold pocket watch and fob. It had been engraved in 1909 with the relief of the famous “Pharaoh’s Horses”, and belonged to her father, my grandfather.
Right then I decided this family heirloom would launch my next business, a horse jewelry design company named Tempi Design Studio. “Tempi” means change, and I planned to work towards a new dimension in Horse and Equestrian Jewelry Designs. “Studio” kept my connection of the Dental Laboratory Studio I owned and operated for so many years, where detail and custom made was a daily task.
Expertise in Handmade & Handcrafted Equestrian Jewelry
Over 40 years Casting Experience
Centrifugal Casting by the Lost Wax Method is an ancient art. Eileen earned a degree from The University of Kentucky in Dental Technology and became a seasoned dental ceramist and metallurgist.
Dabbling in jewelry was a sideline since the tools and equipment were so similar. Dental work was fit under her microscope and confirmed in the mouth by X-ray. Eileen brings her attention to detail in fractions of millimeters!! The result is highly refined but hand-carved designs featuring her equestrian experiences and your requests.
