JLK Designs

BIO

I have been designing and creating jewelry for nearly two decades in my home studio. It was my passion for the art of jewelry making that led me to enroll in silver smithing classes which began my journey to creating JLK Designs. Each piece is handcrafted by myself with care and attention to detail, ensuring that it is both beautiful and durable. I love to watch the flame dance across the metal, sometimes creating a piece that can be completely different than the original concept. While my designs and skill level have progressed over the years, my dedication to providing high-quality pieces to my customers has never wavered. One of the most meaningful aspects of my work is seeing how my jewelry resonates with my customers. I love hearing stories about how a piece of jewelry I created has become a cherished keepsake or a symbol of a special moment in someone's life. It brings me great joy to know that my designs are not only appreciated for their aesthetic appeal, but also for the meaning and the sentiment they evoke. The idea of creating pieces that people can wear and cherish for a lifetime is deeply satisfying to me.

CRAFT

My designs include sterling silver, 14kt gold filled and rose gold filled earrings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets, bangles and rings. I enjoy incorporating unique elements into my designs such as gemstones, Swarovski crystals and beads, semi-precious beads and cabochons , and unexpected patterns. I draw inspiration from a variety of sources including nature, architecture, and fashion. My jewelry is characterized by its minimalistic and simplistic design that is versatile enough to wear for any occasion, whether you’re heading out for a coffee catch-up or a fancy dinner date. In collaboration with my daughter, I have taken the JLK brand to new heights by introducing Studio by JLK – Permanent Jewelry. Effortless, beautiful maintenance-free, custom fit bracelets, necklaces and anklets that are expertly fused to be worn for as long as you want. Offering 14kt gold filled, sterling silver and rose gold selections. No more fiddling with clasps. Wear them. Enjoy them. Love them. Working with my daughter on this project has been very rewarding. It has been wonderful to share my passion for jewelry making with her and to see her own creativity blossom.
