Carolyn Pollack’s designs for Relios often draw from traditional Southwestern motifs while using contemporary formats like coil bracelets for comfort and ease. The ornate stamped beads reference the repoussé and stamping techniques found in Native and Southwestern silversmithing, adapted here into a mass-producible accessory for QVC and department store markets. This style remains popular among collectors looking for casual, stackable sterling jewelry with regional flair.
