About
My name is Athena and I am the one women show behind AB Jewelry. I design and create all the jewelry you find here from my studio nestled in my woodland studio. I am a trained metalsmith and have been working with metal since 2002. Originally I worked in a larger scale creating life sized bronze sculptures. Currently I enjoy creating in a smaller scale. I work primarily in sterling silver, brass, and 23K gold foil. I use recycled metal whenever possible as well as ethically sourced stones and beads. I create jewelry the old fashioned way. Graph paper is about as technical as I get. Many of my designs happen intuitively as I am creating and getting messy. Designing with software or using other tech would get in the way of my creative process.
I make jewelry in small batches where I focus on craftsmanship, quality, and design.
