fLuxe Jewelry
Kristen’s jewelry flirts with a balance between soft and edgy forms. fLuxe Jewelry is a line made from hand-sawing pieces from copper sheet metal & then finishing with enameling and/or oxidation. To create the unique patinas, Kristen gets to be a mad scientist of sorts. She hand mixes the chemicals & then applies them to add color to the metal. The enameling process is done by layering glass powder on the copper & fusing it to the metal by firing it in a kiln.
