ProductsI create handcrafted jewelry inspired by nature from my studio outside Madison, WI. I use reclaimed metals, instead of newly-mined, to ensure that my creations are sustainable and earth-friendly. Practicing the ancient art of metalsmithing, I design and fabricate all my creations by hand using traditional tools. I believe that lovingly created and chosen jewelry can reflect the wearer’s singular sense of style and can represent his or her outlook on life. Jewelry is often a conversation piece—connecting us to others who share our point of view. |

PhilosophyBuying locally supports our community’s economy and lessens the burden on our planet. As a local artisan, I believe in keeping our resources in the community, so I shop locally as much as possible. I am committed to supporting women-owned businesses and encouraging others to buy local. While it’s not always possible to source and purchase materials locally, I do work with a family-owned metal refinery in the United States and only use stones from independent lapidary artists in the U.S. |

HistoryI started my business in 2008, when I first started selling online. I have always loved unique, artisan jewelry—making and wearing—and combined that with my love of the natural world to create the perfect creative business that fits my lifestyle. I enjoy a loyal following of local patrons and several shops in Madison carry my work. |
