TEAMWORK: Our Process

Strung Together

Most of this team has been together 25 to 30 years. This is what dedication sounds like - quiet, steady, and unbreakable. And this is the group of women who make it all happen.

There are places in a business where magic happens quietly.

No spotlight.
No applause.
Just steady hands, sharp eyes, and decades of knowing when something is right.

At Sunwest, that place is the stringing department.

This is where every necklace finds its balance.
Where earrings earn their symmetry.
Where bracelets become something you feel the moment you put them on.

And at the helm of it all is Pam.

Pam is a fearless leader in the truest sense of the word.
Not loud. Not flashy. Just absolutely unshakable.

She organizes an incredible volume of work - day in and day out - without ever losing sight of quality. She motivates her team not with pressure, but with trust. And she keeps her ear tuned to what’s happening in the industry, making sure Sunwest stays relevant without ever chasing trends that don’t belong to us.

Pam understands something important:
Consistency is not accidental - it’s built over time.

And she’s been building it for years.

The women in the stringing department aren’t just employees. They are artists. Craftspeople. Keepers of standards that can’t be written down.

Most of this team has been together 25 to 30 years.

Think about that.

That’s decades of shared rhythm.
Decades of knowing how turquoise should fall, how silver should sit, how weight and movement matter just as much as beauty.

And even the “newest” member of the group - five years in - has already become part of the fabric. That’s how this department works. Knowledge is passed hand to hand, eye to eye. Nothing rushed. Nothing careless.

The stringing department doesn’t ask for recognition.

But they deserve it.

Because without them, Sunwest wouldn’t sound the same.
Wouldn’t move the same.
Wouldn’t feel the same.

This is what dedication sounds like - quiet, steady, and unbreakable.

And this is the group of women who make it all happen.
