Caravana Jewelry and Aqua Lino Studio
Rooted in the red rock beauty of Sedona, Caravana Jewelry was born from a passion for craftsmanship and a deep connection to the creative spirit of the Southwest. Located in the renowned Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village and surrounded by dramatic desert landscapes and a thriving arts culture, we set out to build more than a boutique—we built a space where artistry and AZ made meet.
At the heart of our collection is our in-house line, thoughtfully designed and handcrafted in our Aqua Lino Studio. Here, each piece is carefully fabricated using time-honored metalsmithing techniques and quality materials. Aqua Lino Studio is a jewelry makers paradise with a variety of class offerings. From short making experiences where you make and take a piece, to multi-day technique driven artist intensives with some of the Southwest’s finest makers, ALS is the place to learn the jewelry making process. www.aqualinostudio.com
In addition to our studio collection, Caravana proudly represents a curated group of talented Arizona jewelry artists. These makers bring diverse perspectives, techniques, and culture to our store—celebrating the richness of Arizona’s creative community.
Whether you discover a piece from Aqua Lino Studio or from one of the remarkable Arizona artists we represent, you are bringing home a story shaped by creativity, craftsmanship, and the spirit of the desert!
The Artist
Melissa Iaquilino has lived a lifetime immersed in artistry, with a lifelong passion for jewelry. From her earliest years, she was captivated by the world of adornment. Her artistic journey led her to the esteemed Penland School of Crafts, where she honed her skills in metalsmithing and jewelry fabrication. After spending years in the fine jewelry world, she moved to Sedona and started Caravana Jewelry with her husband Brad Farley. Our mission is simple: to offer jewelry that feels meaningful, enduring, and connected to place. The colors, shapes, and energy of the unique Sedona landscape resonate in Melissa’s creations.
Thank you for being a part of our journey, and we look forward to being a part of yours.
