In this weeks episode, we speak with owner of Gold Heart Wood Works and Bella Fine Jewelry & Piercing, Derek Ian. Based in Asheville, North Carolina, Derek hand crafts beautiful, unique displays alongside his family while trying to balance being a dad, owning a studio and being a woodworker. We take some time to talk about starting from scratch, the birth of designs and the heart and soul that goes into every hand crafted piece.
