Welcome to Big Ticket (BT) Silver!

Hello, I'm Ava Bailey, and for as long as I can remember, two very different dreams have lived in my heart. One led me to the ice rink, where hockey was my focus through college. The other was a childhood promise inspired by a three-year-old watching the movie, “Spirit”, which I fulfilled by getting my first horse after college—a true blessing.

My love for the Western lifestyle deepened into a fascination with the raw beauty of authentic Navajo turquoise after seeing it in Montana. I quickly learned that silversmithing is challenging, but holding a finished, handmade piece makes every intricate moment worth it.

For me, success means seeing a piece of the West worn proudly far from the plains. Thank you for supporting this dream and appreciating the value of handmade artistry. There is something truly special about knowing the hands that crafted your timeless treasure.
