Guardians of Argentine craft

Pieces of Argentina is a curated online store bridging Buenos Aires and the United States. We’re dedicated to preserving Argentina’s artisanal legacy by connecting you with exceptional handmade pieces — from fine leather goods and gaucho knives to native textiles and silverwork. Every purchase helps sustain the families behind these time-honored crafts, and every package tells the story of the skilled hands that brought it to life.

How one bracelet sparked a movement

Raised in the US but captivated by Patagonia, Susan first encountered a gleaming cuff bracelet, made of Argentine silver in 2003. The piece was a gifted from an artist in Buenos Aires, who was looking to expand their hand-crafted brand abroad. Susan saw more than jewelry; she saw a lifeline for craftspeople battling runaway inflation and scarce employment.

She launched Pieces of Argentina to champion their work and, over time, built a bilingual, bi-cultural team with local expert Natalia. Today Susan still hand-picks every product, ensuring each shipment supports a real artisan and delivers a genuine slice of Argentina’s soul.

Why support Argentinian craft?

making jewelry

Choosing authentic Argentinian craft means investing in people, not factories. Your purchase funds fair wages, family workshops, and age-old skills – everything fast fashion ignores. It keeps traditional silver-smelting fires burning in the pampas and sustains tanneries that still cure hides by hand. You don’t just buy a product; you help preserve a cultural legacy while receiving a piece that’s truly unique.

    I ordered a handcrafted mate set and it’s become my favorite morning ritual. Everything from the gourd to the bombilla is beautifully made, and I love that it came with info about the tradition. Heartfelt and authentic.

    As a lifelong rider, I’m obsessed with the leather halter and braided reins I got here. Stylish, rugged, and obviously made by people who understand horses. Highly recommend for fellow riders!

    The alpaca shawl I ordered is so soft, and I love knowing it was handspun by local artisans. This is the kind of quality you just don’t find in chain stores. Will definitely be ordering more.

    I bought a gaucho-style steak knife set as an anniversary gift, and my husband hasn’t stopped talking about them. The handles are carved bone and rawhide—seriously stunning. Shipping was smooth and fast, too!

    I ordered a silver cuff bracelet and was blown away by the craftsmanship. You can feel the heritage in every detail. The packaging even included a note about the artist. It’s not just jewelry—it’s a story.

    I just received the earrings today. Exquisite! Beautiful! Exactly what I was looking for. My precious wife will love them. They are for her birthday, maybe the best day of my life even if I didn’t know it at the time. (I was only two years old and living in a different state.)

    I am a freelance writer covering horse racing here in the U.S. On a recent assignment where my wife was with me, we met a lady with earrings similar, but not nearly as expensive looking, as the ones I purchased from Pieces of Argentina. I made a mental note to search for stirrup earrings. It was not easy to find something in the right size. In fact, I ordered a pair and returned them as they were too small. Yours are perfect.

    Thank you for making something so beautiful!

    Nothing compares to Argentina!!!! Goods from Argentina Better than a Birkin!!!!

    Thank you, Sue !! I ”tripped” on your website and I became an instant customer; you have some very nice articles. Thanks for your excellent customer service!
