Christine is a metalsmith & jeweler in Detroit, MI.

Christine’s work travels between lovely objects for every day to fanciful works of fiction for exhibition and the runway environment. In either case you can be assured that all work is hand made by Christine and that she strives to be as eco-conscience and good citizen minded as she can be. Christine loves interacting with the world, feel free to contact her with questions (her work, technical, and other), custom requests or to shoot the breeze.

In Christine's spare time she likes to harass her significant other, repair her 1920's home located in the D (Detroit), walk her dog Gretel, go for bike rides, eat, and vacation far far away.

    Owner, Do'er Of Everything.

    I believe in making all my work by hand. The only item I buy are earring backs and really small chain. In addition, etsy is now asking its makers to share any outside help they may use in creating their work. Having said that here it is:

  • Gretel

    Copilot

    I make sure Christine is either working, walking or eating!

Production partners

  • AU Enterprises

    Berkley, MI

    AU Enterprises is a small independent shop in Berkeley, MI. When there is a job that I can not do in house, such as engraving, I rely on AU Enterprises, because I know they will do a great job.

Returns and exchange details
I stand behind all my work. Please contact me if your work is damaged or in need of repair.

Custom orders, including all rings and any special requests: I love you and want to work with you, as I see it, if I can I will. I love to work on custom orders but if you request it and I make it, and you don't like the results, I am not responsible. No refund or exchange.

***Please, please, please know your ring size! If you dont know it, please do not guess as the size is inevitably wrong. I have a handy ring sizer that I would love to send you to avoid having to resize. A handy tip for surprises, grab your loved ones day rings and take them to a local jeweler for sizing. I charge $30 for most ring resizing for hinged rings sometimes more, which will include return shipping. If your ring is engraved, it may have to be re-engraved or re-made depending on the size of the engraving and how much resizing is necessary.

Please contact me with any resizing issues before mailing your package out. I recommend using usps priority with tracking and sending me the tracking number once you have it, so that I can keep a look out.
