    Hi! I’m Emily Kitt. I’m an award-winning jewelry artist and instructor with over 25 years of experience, and a whole lot of passion. I first learned metalworking while in college and studying Art Education at Kutztown University, and it quickly became something I couldn’t live without. I worked in the book publishing world for 10 years while tinkering away in the studio during downtime from work. I continued learning new techniques, was part of a wonderful jewelry artist collective (Bluestem Studio), and when the collection parted ways, I set out on my own.Custom Australian Opal Ring with Moon. Blue Textured triangle, with a gold dot attached.

    Now, I’m a full time jewelry artist based out of Quakertown, Pennsylvania. Thanks to primarily selling my work online, I have clients across the globe. My jewelry has been featured by industry leaders Interweave and Rio Grande, published in magazines, and has received numerous awards. I participate in a handful of art shows and markets each year, and despite not having a brick-and-mortar presence, I can still meet with clients who prefer face-to-face communication versus email.

    Creating jewelry is my passion, as is adhering to eco-friendly methods and materials… it’s not just better for the earth, but healthier for myself and anyone else who spends time in my studio. The majority of my pieces are one of a kind; I feel that each person is unique, so their jewelry should be, too! I’m lucky enough for my dream job to be a full time gig, and it’s all thanks to wonderful people like yourself who support independent artists who make each piece by hand.

    Along with creating jewelry, I also teach jewelry classes and workshops at the Baum School of Art in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

    I have been creating jewelry since 2014—a combination self-taught and formal metalsmith training. Each new wrap or earring design shows me something new, which is the beauty and privilege of creating. Metalsmithing continues to grow me as an artist with each light of the torch and strike of the hammer. I am often inspired by the wonderful souls who enjoy my jewelry and the stories behind each piece.

    My designs are a Bohemian-Zen take on ancient European and African jewelry, reflecting my own familial ethnicities. Earrings and rings are hand-forged of brass, sterling, bronze, copper and natural stones. Wraps (an adaptive combination of necklace and bracelet) use handmade beads and stones, from many different countries, with varying levels of intricacy. Each wrap allows the wearer to style it as a relaxed choker, necklace, or bracelet stack, using an American made magnet and heavy-duty stringing wire. This combination creates a unique piece of jewelry allowing the wearer to express their style at the moment, while remaining grounded and without pretense.
