another Poland

When asked why she makes jewelry of natural stone, Aleksandra Skolak writes in no uncertain terms: „The symbol of our region’s wealth is granite.“ We must add that her entire family has roots firmly anchored in the material for generations in Poland’s former Prussian Province of Lower Silesia in close proximity to the city of Strzegom where the family quarried granite for generations: her father was a quarry specialist, her father-in-law made a name for himself as a stone producer and together with her husband she manages Granex Company.
