Silver Jewelry

Rings, pendants and earrings, hand-fabricated and cast from CAD models.

Two sterling silver rings, one set with moss agate

I started making jewelry at ten. At Stanford I took a fabrication course at the Palo Alto Art Center, then learned silver and bronze lost-wax casting in Stanford's summer Arts Intensive. I was course assistant for that class the following summer (ME 14AX: Design for Silver and Bronze) and continued with independent studies until I graduated.

Once I learned CAD, I began designing pieces digitally and printing wax models on Formlabs printers for casting, which makes small production runs possible.
