About Us
Artisan Jeweler | Metalsmith | Legacy Craftswoman
About Me
I am a second-generation artist, raised in the vibrant world of oil painting and ceramics. My journey began at my mother’s side, painting ceramics and pouring clay into molds. This early exposure to art and craftsmanship shaped my hands and heart.
Later, I worked alongside my late husband, building and covering giant-scale aerobatic airplanes. It was there I learned to saw and pierce metals—a skill that now breathes life into my jewelry.
Since 2007, I have dedicated myself to silversmithing, specializing in Viking silver chain techniques, forging, hammering, stamping, soldering, bending, and chain making. My work is inspired by the elegance of peonies and the strength of banyan trees, reflected in every piece I create.

Artistic Philosophy
I believe jewelry is more than adornment—it is a story forged in metal and stone. Each piece I create is a tribute to nature’s beauty and the legacy of craftsmanship passed down through generations.
The Blooming Grace Necklace
Welcome to a world where metal blooms and stones whisper stories.
This necklace is not just jewelry—it is a living tribute to the elegance of peonies and the strength of banyan trees. Each petal is hand-forged, each curve a testament to nature’s grace and the legacy of craftsmanship passed down through generations.
Worn close to the heart, this piece carries the memory of gardens and the wisdom of roots. It is not just worn—it is lived.
Where Metal Meets Nature’s Geometry
Leaves are nature’s blueprint—each vein a path, each edge a whisper of symmetry. In this collection, I translate the elegance of foliage into wearable art. Forged, hammered, and shaped by hand, each piece carries the memory of the forest.
