Alicia Ferreras is the designer behind Amferre. I create Alaskan-made jewelry using natural materials like caribou antlers, baleen, and ivory. I source these materials from Inupiat hunters from the North Slope. My designs are inspired from the strength and power these materials have provided for my community. You can find available pieces or see what I’ve made in the past on my Instagram @amferre.
