The name Fifth Element Jewelry came to me as intuitively as most of my designs do. Ever since my first trip to India and the subsequent excursions around Asia, I've grown a a penchant for the cultures of the East. I feel a strong draw toward the philosophies, aesthetics and wholesomeness of the countries I've visited. In Eastern traditions, there are not four, but five main elements: fire, wood, earth, water and metal. As a lover of nature and a molder of metal, I needed to seek no further; the name and thus my business was born!
Unintentionally, fifth element has grown into a double entendre with the western interpretation of it as the spirituality or space element; the "space between the space," if you will. I welcome this interpretation with open arms, as my practice can become very spiritual and meditative at times.
My work is largely guided by intuition. I rarely have a fully formed idea of what I'm going to make before getting started. Instead, I prefer to let the stones guide the way and allow the piece to evolve through the process.
Well, enough about me. Ultimately, this shop and these pieces are for you! Hopefully you are here because you've seen a piece of jewelry or a stone that speaks to you in the same way it spoke to me. Maybe it brings you to some other time or some other place in your mind. Maybe you'e unable to quite put your finger on it, but something about the pieces pulls you in. Or maybe you accidentally clicked on the wrong link and are just trying to click delete to get away from here! Either way, if you are still here, thank you for reading. Feel free to message me with any questions or comments- there is a human on this end!

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy my shop.
