Handcrafted Artisan Jewelry

 
 
The act of creation— the conversation that I have with my work— is what keeps me coming back. I love starting with an idea, and a sketch on a scrap of paper, and working to turn it into something real, lovely and precious. I intend my jewelry to empower as well as adorn the wearer, to make her feel confident as well as beautiful.
 
 

Unique Adornment

I primarily work in sterling silver and gold. Along with precious stones, I frequently incorporate “found objects” such as buttons, pebbles, and wood. My jewelry has a sense of history, and often an element of surprise. All of my work is hand fabricated, so each piece is unique.

Handcrafted with Care

I create all of the pieces you see here in my home studio, on the shores of Lake Superior, in Duluth, Minnesota. I strive to produce as much as possible by hand including bezels, clasps, and ear-wires. I believe that the hand of the maker increases the value, and results in one-of-a-kind pieces.
