Taylor’s Bio: Taylor Smith is a jeweler based out of Oakland, CA. Her designs have made their mark in an emerging industry through their fully-custom nature, never to be repeated in a second piece. Unique takes on patterns, gem placement, metalwork, and overall presentation set Taylor apart from other artists, and her growing reputation as a cornerstone of her craft has garnered attention up and down the West Coast.

Geometric shapes and angles are a signature of Taylor’s work and serve as major inspirations in all of her designs. By merging sharp edges with beautiful gems and perfectly-placed accents, Taylor is able to present a completely fresh take on modern ornamentation.
