Artist Bio
MTN Surf Designs is a line of handmade jewelry that originated with contemporary mountain and wave designs by Matt Firth. When Matt retired from making jewelry in 2021, the line was passed along to longtime friends in the art world, Amy Kirkland and Brad Harris. Brad is the maker behind each beautifully crafted piece and Amy is the owner of Altitude Gallery where these designs have been represented for over a decade. Based in Bozeman, MT, Amy & Brad's mutual love of skiing and whitewater is behind the name MTN Surf Designs.
In Memoriam of Matt Firth
It is with love and sadness that we share the news of Matt Firth's passing in June 2022. Matt shared his love of the outdoors through his jewelry and his numerous trips into the backcountry with friends and family. We are grateful for the many years we got to work with Matt and swap ski stories with him while representing his beautiful work in downtown Bozeman.
Before Matt's passing, he trained and sold his mountain jewelry line to Brad Harris of MTN Surf Designs. Brad is still creating Matt's beloved designs while continuously adding new designs to this lovely line of handmade jewelry. Brad is forever grateful to his mentor and friend and continues to invoke a love of the outdoors in each piece he creates.
