Bozeman, Montana

After earning her metalsmithing degree at Montana State University, Esther Sullivan honed her craft working with jewelers in Vermont, and launched her eponymous collection with a return to the scenic mountain ranges and expansive nature in Bozeman, MT. 

We met Esther in the Bay Area and were enamored with her metal work–the combination of 14K and 18K gold with oxidized silver and reticulation, hammering and patina techniques. Using tools handed down from her grandfather, each of Esther's jewelry pieces are individually made, giving them a one-of-a-kind feel. Beautiful pieces with just the right amount of edge.
