Clouds + Ladders

Colorful, modern handmade jewelry

Forestville, California

I handmake my jewelry in my solar-powered studio in a redwood forest north of San Francisco. Each piece starts with a soldered brass and/or cast bronze frame, which I fill with polymer clay. Each piece is meticulously sanded, polished, and assembled by hand.

My inspiration comes from both the natural world and my love of the history of art + design. If you look closely you’ll find references to planets, plants, and David Bowie’s pants!
