Dianne Partington,
has collected vintage western and pawn jewelry for over
40 years and because of that has acquired a keen eye for
quality workmanship. Silver Horse Designs, was born out
of that passion. Many of her pieces have a Native American
influence while others have a classic western style.
Working out of her tack room, Dianne creates one of a kind
designs that include new pieces as well as re-designed pawn.
Some of the turquoise she finds originates from mines that
have long been closed, making her pieces more rare. She
also uses top quality coral, pearls & semi-precious
stones for added color and unique character, and only the
finest sterling silver.
Her designs have been featured in national magazines, and
have been worn, most recently, by American Idol winner and
country super star, Carrie Underwood in a photo shoot for
Country Weekly.
Since she was old enough to walk, Dianne has connected with
horses and the classic California ranch lifestyle. A dedicated
animal lover, she always dreamed of a life surrounded by
horses, cattle, dogs and cats. She made that dream a reality
while living on the Cojo Ranch in California, then later
by moving to the central coast after meeting her husband
Dan 15 years ago. Its is here that she has firmly planted
her roots in the horse country of Paso Robles where she's
raised a few good horses. Her passion for this lifestyle
and Native American artistry inspired her to become a designer.
You’ll often see her heading to town in her truck
and always with her beloved dog Rowdy, hauling her horses
or jewelry to events and trade shows, sharing a smile and
a horse story with everyone she meets.
Anyone who knows Dianne will tell you that her greatest
pride in life will always be her family - her husband Dan
and three daughters, Angela, Alison and Aimee. |
