Purple Handmade Jewelry Inspired by Martha’s Vineyard

Purple is having a moment.

From fashion to home décor, shades of violet, lavender and plum are appearing everywhere this season. At Rumi Sumaq, trends are never simply copied. Instead, Quechua jewelry designer Coco Paniora Salinas interprets them through the art of hand-knotting, creating purple handmade jewelry that feels timeless while celebrating the colors of today.

These artisan tassel earrings feature hand-knotted purple fiber, genuine copper beads and sterling silver French hooks. Handmade on Martha’s Vineyard, they represent wearable fiber art inspired by traditional weaving and coastal creativity. A unique gift for women who love boho jewelry, colorful accessories and one-of-a-kind handcrafted designs.

Inspired by the beauty of Martha’s Vineyard and the traditions of handmade fiber art, Coco created four new pieces that each tell a different story through shades of purple. Whether you’re drawn to the ocean, nature or artisan craftsmanship, this new collection offers a unique way to wear one of the season’s most beautiful colors.

Handmade Purple Jewelry With A Story

Every piece begins the same way: with waxed fiber, patient hands and generations of traditional weaving techniques. Coco hand knots each design in the Rumi Sumaq studio on Martha’s Vineyard, creating jewelry that reflects both his Quechua heritage and the island that has become home.

Unlike mass-produced accessories, every bracelet and pair of earrings carries subtle variations that make it unique. As a result, each design feels personal, meaningful and made to last.

A Purple Martha’s Vineyard Bracelet to Remember the Island

For many visitors, Martha’s Vineyard becomes a place they carry with them long after summer ends. The new purple Martha’s Vineyard bracelet captures that feeling with an oval island map centerpiece surrounded by hand-knotted waxed cord in royal purple, light purple and white.

Designed as wearable fiber art, this adjustable artisan bracelet blends coastal inspiration, traditional weaving techniques and meaningful island jewelry craftsmanship.

Available with your choice of sterling silver or gold plated pewter, the adjustable bracelet is finished with warm copper bead accents that beautifully complement the purple color palette. Whether it becomes a personal keepsake or a thoughtful MV island gift, it celebrates the memories that make Martha’s Vineyard so special.

A Purple Macrame Bracelet Inspired by Nature

Nature has always inspired Coco’s work. The new purple macrame bracelet features three flowing vines of hand-knotted leaves that wrap gracefully around the wrist. Shades of purple create depth and movement while hematite stones and the signature Rumi Sumaq logo bead complete the design.

This bracelet blends traditional macramé techniques with contemporary style, creating wearable fiber art that celebrates the beauty of leaves, vines and organic forms.

Purple Copper Earrings with Movement and Artistry

The collection also introduces striking purple copper earrings. Hand-knotted in rich purple fiber with genuine copper bead accents, these lightweight earrings move beautifully with every step.

Why Purple?

Purple has long been associated with creativity, imagination and individuality. It also feels perfectly at home on Martha’s Vineyard, where lavender hydrangeas bloom beside weathered fences, lupines brighten country roads and colorful sunsets fade into the Atlantic.

This collection celebrates those moments. Rather than following a trend, it reflects colors that have always been part of island life.

Handmade on Martha’s Vineyard

Every piece in this collection is hand-knotted by Coco Paniora Salinas in the Rumi Sumaq studio on Martha’s Vineyard. Each knot represents patience, craftsmanship and a connection to generations of Quechua weaving traditions that continue through every design.
