About Kathryn

 

In the fall of 2024 I began experiencing numbness in my right arm.  By December 2024 I was surprised to be diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer that had spread to my brain.  This affected the right side of my body and by the end of January 2025 I was not able to walk or use my right arm/hand.  My diagnosis is not curable, but it is treatable, and I have undergone radiation, chemotherapy, targeted treatment, and physical therapy.  I will be continuing treatment indefinitely.

Thank you everyone: friends, family, customers, and strangers.  I have never felt so much support and love, and it is humbling.  THANK YOU.

I have regained my ability to walk and use my right arm and hand, thus allowing me to create jewelry again.  As you can imagine, my diagnosis has given me a new perspective, and a laser focus on what is most important.  With that in mind, you will see changes in what jewelry I am able to make or choose to make.

Hug your loved ones and focus on making memories with them.  Do what you can to make the world a better place for everyone.  Life is short and unexpected, so make the most of it and be kind to everyone you meet. :)

In 2002 I received my BFA from the Savannah College of Art and Design where I studied Metals and Jewelry.  I began creating my own collection of jewelry shortly after graduation.  

Currently my pieces are handmade in Savannah, GA, and are sold online, as well as through a few boutiques and art shows across the country. 

My jewelry incorporates a variety of techniques (fabrication, enameling, casting...)  I primarily work in sterling silver, however I do offer a few brass and copper options.  I am most known for the hand stamped messages which are found on many of my designs, as well as for my playful and colorful enamels.  

I strive to create meaningful pieces that will be both fun to wear and empowering/comforting to the wearer.
