In 1991 the Silpada story began when two housewives from Kansas, Bonnie Kelly and Theresa Walsh, took $25 from their grocery money and began hosting parties to sell sterling silver jewelry. They founded Silpada Designs six years later.Customers who purchased from Bonnie and Teresa became representatives of Silpada Designs Sterling Silver Jewelry.

Today, Silpada has designers and artisans from all across the world helping to handcraft their jewelry. Silpada has always emphasized high standards of quality, style and craftsmanship. Their wide collection of jewelry includes earrings, bracelets, ladies' belts, necklaces, pendants, rings, pins, ladies' watches, anklets, toe rings and men's jewelry, set in Sterling Silver and often accented with gemstones. The men's jewelry includes necklaces, rings and bracelets. The current catalogue contains well over 450 jewelry designs.
