Liane Crosta and her husband Chris create salmon leather jewelry and accessories using salmon byproducts, as well as halibut, rockfish, and seaglass and shells gathered from beaches in Alaska. Lifelong Alaskans, they were both taught from an early age how to catch, clean, smoke, cure, and jar wild salmon.
More than a decade ago, they realized how beautiful the salmon skins were, and decided they could find a purpose for materials that are usually wasted or thrown away; Liane and Chris also utilize bones and vertebrae for jewelry and art.
Through their business, From the C, the pair sells unique items such as journals, travel bags, boot bling, in addition to earrings, necklaces, bracelets, purses, and more. Their newest line of products is a wedding and formal wear collection. Find Chris and Liane on Instagram (@FromTheCAlaska) and Facebook (facebook.com/fromthecalaska)
