Update September 14th, 2023
As some of you already are aware, TierraCast has made the decision
to end their operation at the close of this year. Please read their statement below.
It is with overwhelming
sadness that TierraCast has made the difficult decision to close our doors by
the end of this year. As a manufacturer we have faced increasing challenges,
including compliance and regulation demands, rising costs, supply chain issues,
changes in the market, overseas competition, and declining sales. Over time
these factors have proven to be insurmountable.
During our 45 years TierraCast grew from a single jeweler’s bench to a business
that, at its peak, employed 49 people. From the very beginning, the business
has consistently held three strong values; respect for its employees, honesty
in business, and quality of product. The loyalty of our customers, commitment
of our employees, and strength and support of our vendors and trade partners
have enabled the business to thrive for most of its life. We can only imagine
the effect that our impending closure will have on people who have supported
and counted on us all these years. For that we are truly sorry and deeply
regret the need to have made this decision.
As we go through the closing process we will make every effort to support you,
our customers, as best we can.
TierraCast has been a
proud US manufacturer for 45 years. We have loved being part of the jewelry
making industry, and it has been an honor to serve you.
With our deepest gratitude,
Steve, Alan, and the TierraCast Team
We know many of you have
come to rely on their designs, quality beads and finding and will miss their
products in the future.
Our current stock
levels of TierraCast are moderate, but as products sell out, they will be
removed from the website. We encourage anyone looking for any specific item,
purchase them sooner than later.
Please note that we
reserve the right to limit quantities as to avoid hoarding. If your order is adjusted,
you will be notified prior to shipping.
