Welcome to my website! I hope you'll find something of beauty inside and that you will return as often as you like.

I grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana with my brothers and sisters and a wonderful mother who encouraged us to create. I started making jewelry in high school where I learned fabrication, bezel setting and cast my first ring in sterling silver . Soon I was taking classes and serving apprenticeships under several master bench jewelers.

I am currently teaching for the West Panhandle Florida Society of Goldsmiths and belong to the Florida Panhandle Gem and Mineral Society. I work with gold, platinum, sterling, copper and brass and enjoy setting all types of gemstones.

• In 1984 I created the first gold and silver "New Orleans King Cake Babies".
• In 1999 I made a ring for a retired U.S. Navy diver that actor Robert DeNiro wore in the 2000 movie "Men Of Honor" and it was featured prominently on the movie poster.
• In 2003 former First Lady Rosalynn Carter commissioned me to create a silver pendant for a gift to a friend.

I hope you enjoy my website and be sure to contact me for your one-of-a-kind jewelry creations.

Peace, Kristina.
