    MEET THE DESIGNER

    A hidden treasure from an austere yet magical destination located on the Pacific coast between San Francisco and Santa Barbara, Big Sur Goldsmith produces one-of-a-kind fine jewelry pieces infused with a rich family legacy that started with the creativity, inventiveness, and skill of patriarch Karl Lee.

    Karl first developed his passion and skill for metalsmithing at The Esalen Institute in the 1960s, and by the 1970s he had perfected his skills in both casting and hand fabrication, mixing metals like 22K gold, platinum, and silver in unique ways. In the 1980s, Karl's son Aurthur started apprenticing under his father, and daughter-in-law Carrie Armstrong soon followed, eventually contributing their own vision and point of view to the pieces. 

    This ring packs a big cool-girl punch with multiple intriguing design elements in a wearable shape and size. It is sure to keep catching your eye as much as your admirers.
