NATURE INSPIRED JEWELS

Katie crafts authentic jewels inspired by flora and fauna that speak to a woman's adventurous spirit.
She uses ethical gems + metals and hand crafts custom pieces from heirloom gold + diamonds.

CUSTOM DESIGN

Katie works one on one with clients to design stunning 'future heirlooms' -- one of a kind pieces that are as unique and individual as you are.

There's no more intimate way to capture your unique love story or commemorate life's biggest moments than a personalized piece of jewelry you'll wear every day.

WORK WITH KATIE
  • Expertly Crafted

    With over 15 years of experience and two professional degrees in both technical and design training, Katie is more than qualified to handle any of your jewelry needs.

    Katie puts equal emphasis on quality of design and quality of execution.

  • Authentic Designs

    Custom design does not simply mean crafting what already exists or combining existing ideas into a new package.

    As a professional designer, Katie will start with drawings. Often these reference specific things from your personal story, incorporated in unique, tasteful ways.

  • Ethical Materials

    Whenever possible, Katie utilizes ethically sourced, tracable materials with the least possible social, economic, and environmental impacts.

    All of the gold and silver Katie works with comes from recycled sources.

    Stones come from quality suppliers that offer ethically sourced natural stones and/or chemically identical stones produced in a lab.

CUSTOM IS WHATEVER YOU WANT IT TO BE

Katie offers a unique design experience that is carefully tailored to your goals, aesthetics, and budget.

Start from scratch OR repurpose your heirloom gold + stones.

Don't hesitate -- the piece you're dreaming about is closer than you think!

*Consultations are always free
