Katie Design Jewelry by Katie Scott

Katie Scott found something once. Something she didn’t know she was missing. After a long bout with uncertainty, anxiety, and fear, self-reflection led her to find peace through quiet; quieting her heart and mind. Meditation, prayer and reflection readied her mind for a revelation: There is peace through submission, great strength and faith. It allows the mind to turn its focus on spiritual fulfillment and let go of vanity. Cultivating an understanding that what is most beautiful in life is not material or social or cultural, but spiritual. Her art, informed by this idea, took a pivotal turn. Design for beauty’s sake, evolved into art with purpose. Katie Design Jewelry has become the creative outlet of this new peaceful perspective. Their line includes necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings, and wristbands, handcrafted and adorned with gemstones.  Gone now are the doubts and fear, replaced by a spiritual strength guided by faith in something bigger, something more. Each piece is dripping with wisdom, and injected with purpose. 

Strength often comes from resolve and commitment; This is where Katie Design Jewelry pieces take on a new meaning. Unlike most other jewelers their pieces are meant to provide support and bring peace as a visual reminder that we all are part of something greater than ourselves. This is a central part of Katie Design Jewelry's inspiration: To breathe function where there was once only form. Let their art be a beacon for renewed sense of spirit and a vehicle to redirect inner peace outwards.

Scott’s designs are not merely metaphorically representative of her mind, but they have an ethereal construction.  Her full moon wish cuff is a golden band with a diamond-encrusted moon on either end. The piece goes beyond having a beautiful look but it symbolizes the cyclical nature of the passage of time. When things are down and out, they can provide hope, or at the very least balance in the grounding reminder that life will go on.

Katie Design Jewelry's refreshing perspective has been met with open arms by the fashion industry. After starting off as an interior design firm in 2005, Scott expanded into jewelry and has hit her stride. In the last decade, Katie Design Jewelry has gone from a single moment of clarity, to an immersive style reshaping the norms of the fashion and beauty industries in stores all across the country.
