In 1981 two young and talented entrepreneurs began a jewelry business in their single-car garage. In 2011, co-founders Holly Hosterman and Paul Lubitz opened a Holly Yashi flagship retail store inside their current Humboldt County jewelry design studio. In addition to showcasing Holly Yashi's awardwinning jewelry and offering other gift items, the store allows visitors the rare and fascinating experience of seeing Holly Yashi jewelry being made.
Though the studio may have grown to more than 15,000 sq.ft. in the past 40 years, Holly Yashi continues to honor and preserve the art of jewelry-making by crafting each item by hand in small batches. Customers can even sip on complimentary beverages while they shop. It is the perfect place to bring out-of-town guests for a fun-filled field trip.
WHERE: 1300 9th St., Arcata just minutes from Hwy 101.
