Wear the Art

I create jewelry with intention. Each piece begins as a simple sheet of silver and becomes something alive—shaped by fire, pressure, and the thin, luminous glow of 24k gold. I work in a technique called Keum-Boo, where pure gold is fused to silver, allowing me to draw with metal itself. The patterns I use—florals, vines, natural textures—come from the world around me and from the quiet moments when inspiration hits.

I design and build everything in my studio, from the first sketch to the final polish. Many of my gold patterns are cut with a tool I engineered myself, giving me the freedom to be incredibly detailed, precise, and expressive. It lets me create work that feels both ancient and modern—pieces meant to be worn, lived in, and passed on.

Jewelry is more than decoration to me. It’s artwork you carry. It’s the feeling of something true and handcrafted against your skin. When someone chooses one of my pieces, they’re not just wearing metal—they’re wearing a story, a moment, a piece of art that was made for them.
