Spring is my time to slow down and learn. I spend part of the season exploring new designs and settings I haven’t tried before, and the rest photographing recent work. These are a few finished pieces—though many experiments didn’t make it here. The process is full of quiet trial and error, and I’m grateful for all of it.

Petal Wind Ring

Petal Wind collection tries to capture the breeze-swept prairie - just like the neverending change in life. Nothing stands still.

The organic shapes were hand-hammered - It took days to adjust and find balance in the shape, and required planning and careful execution.

My work reflects my study of abstract and geometric forms. A lot of collections were inspired by life moments. Hand-hammered and hand-shaped pieces, along with organic-shaped gemstones set by hand, make the final piece uniquely its own.

Free drop off or pick up around the Oak Park area. 💕❤️

Hi friends,
My journey began in Brooklyn as an art student, then moved through creative roles in advertising and fine jewelry. Over time, I found my way back to hands-on making through metalsmithing. W8M Jewelry grew from that return—a quiet reflection on impermanence, movement, and nature’s subtle rhythms. Each piece is hand-hammered, shaped with softness, and made to hold life’s in-between moments.

Each piece begins with ethically sourced materials - shaped by hand, hammered and engraved with intention, every piece carries its own quiet rhythm—no two are alike.

Ethical Gemstones
Most gemstones come from members of the AGTA (American Gem Trade Association), who work to maintain the highest ethical business standards. Our goal is to resource all our gemstones from AGTA members eventually.

Ethical Metals
The sterling silver is sourced from refiners on the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) list, which means they certify and independently audit that all supplies are traceable and conflict-free.

Awake statement pendant
A spark awakes in an icy, calming aquamarine. Fire aquamarine and orange radiant spessartine garnet are set on a botanic-inspired pendant. It is a one-of-a-kind piece with hand-hammered embossment and a hand-engraved pattern.

Hand-hammering took days to adjust and find balance in the shape, and hand engraving allowed more intriguing details that required planning and careful execution.

Gemstones are from a member of AGTA (American Gem Trade Association). AGTA members work to hold the highest ethical business standards.

We took a trip to visit my family in Taiwan in early summer. Travel has always been inspiring, and even though we mostly visited places I've been to many times before, these places now carry my fondest memories. Seeing friends or family members going through tough times wasn't easy. Still, I am lucky to have spent a decent amount of time with them, and I know it was magical for two of my loved ones to receive so much love and care from my side of the family.

Until next time, Taiwan!

Salt and pepper statement pendant
Salt and pepper diamond quartz and orange radiant spessartine garnet set on a botanic-inspired sterling silver pendant.

The hand-hammered embossment and hand-engraved botanic pattern are my attempts to capture a breeze-swept prairie field. Hand-hammering took days to adjust and find balance in the shape, and hand engraving allowed more intriguing details that required planning and careful execution.

Caught some brilliant sunlight while in Denver. When visiting a new city, I always search for rock shops. These two new additions also serve as a stand for the latest creation!

Breeze ring
Watermelon tourmaline and spessartite garnet set on silver.

I captured the images of this ring in the car while waiting for my son’s soccer practice and continued to edit all the clips into the final video. I’m glad I could work and be there for him simultaneously.

Tried out new ideas and set up to make multiple pieces. So glad to see these two catching lights so well! Hand-hammered takes time, but it creates unique shapes and textures.
