APJ Designs

For my 16th birthday my Grandma gave me a 1920s 14k gold diamond ring and that was the start of my love for timeless style. With much of my inspiration coming from nature and old-world charm, handmade jewelry with effortless beauty and timeless style is my go-to. My designs incorporate classic metal smithing techniques to create delicate pieces with clean lines and textures. I like the combination of creating something that has the essence of nature paired with the strength of quality materials. I use solid 14k gold, natural stones, and Argentium silver which It is a superior, high performance silver. It is purer than Sterling and has hypoallergenic properties that make it a wearable option for most with metal allergies. I make every piece with love in my upstate New York studio!
