LeeAnn Herreid's jewelry is something the 21st century traveler should never be without. Compass rings and pendants set in sterling silver ensure you never lose your way, spirit level earrings keep you in balance, stainless steel ruler bracelets give you the measure of things, and thermometer earrings keep you cool. These are just some of the pieces in Herreid's line of functional and innovative jewelry; more than just decorative, they are pieces with purpose.

Herreid graduated from Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in 1991 with a BFA in Jewelry & Light Metals. Two years later she founded Individual Icons. The name goes right to the point of Herreid's art: jewelry that gives the wearer an expression of personal meaning through functionality. Her inspired line of jewelry is both symbolic and beautiful.

She also makes custom work and one-of-a-kind pieces out of stainless steel, 18 karat gold, and platinum.

LeeAnn Herreid's work is available in galleries and museum shops throughout the United States and abroad. Her pieces have been praised internationally and featured in numerous magazines & multimedia. She is a Graduate Gemologist and is an Accredited Jewelry Professional with 30 years at the bench.
