Solid sterling sheet
Every piece starts as solid 925 sterling silver sheet — never plated base metal, never hollow.
Our mission
Crosses hewn by hand, made to be carried for life.
Every Men Hewn piece is cut, chiseled and finished by hand in solid 925 sterling silver — never cast, never plated. We make one symbol, three ways to carry it, and we stand behind every piece for life.
Company profile
About Men Hewn
Men Hewn is a small silversmith workshop making cross jewelry for men — pendants, rings and bracelets, nothing else.
A cast cross is poured: a thousand identical twins off one mold. Ours are hewn — sawn from sterling sheet, chisel-marked, and burnished by hand, one at a time, the way smiths worked a century ago. Hammer marks and patina vary from piece to piece; that variation is the signature of hand work, not a flaw.
We work exclusively in solid 925 sterling silver. No plating, no hollow cores, no shortcuts — silver you can feel the weight of. Every piece ships with a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Our approach
How every piece is made
From sterling sheet to finished cross: sawn by hand, chisel-marked, filed, burnished and inspected at the bench before it ever touches a box.
Sawn & shaped by hand
Each cross is sawn from sheet and shaped at the bench, one at a time — not stamped out by the thousand.
Chisel-marked & burnished
The texture you feel is hammer and chisel work, finished on the wheel until the edge highlights sing.
Bench inspection
Every piece is inspected for solder, clasp and finish before it boxes — and warranted for life after.
