Rachel Richardson - Jewelry artist
Location: Flagstaff, AZ
"I love old tools that stand the test of time and have a passion for jewelry that does as well. I acquired the skills to use a variety of tools from a family of makers growing up on the Oregon Coast.
My work is inherently inspired by place, as well as the materials I work with, travel, and people. After spending ten years at the bench honing my skills designing for a luxury company under the mentorship of cutting-edge jewelers, love brought me to the mountains of Arizona. It was here I finally built my own studio. My pieces are comprised of high quality, long-lasting metals that include yellow, white, and rose gold, as well as sterling silver. I also incorporate a large variety of precious gemstones, some of my favorites being unique cuts and colors of diamonds or sapphires, and of course, our native southwest turquoise.
I think people are an ever-changing canvas to embellish, adorn, and amplify. I take pride in fabricating quality products to be cherished for many years. Thank you for choosing my work and supporting local art!"

Permanent Jewelry
Rachel frequently comes to the gallery for jewelry popups and offers permanent jewelry: necklaces, bracelets, and anklets made from chain that she fits perfectly to you and attaches using a tiny welder so it stays on all the time and doesn't have a clasp! It's beautiful, minimalist, and wonderfully low-maintenance - and can be easily removed if you no longer want it on.
Different styles of chain are available in sterling silver, 14k yellow gold, rose gold, and white gold. Rachel also has charms that can be added in fun shapes, charms with diamonds and sapphires, or she can custom-stamp a charm for you right in the gallery with initials or a special date!
Popups take place about once a month. Check out our News & Events page for information about the next one. You can also follow us on social media or sign up for our newsletter to be notified about upcoming events!
