About

Christine grew up in Germany and started her career as a journeyman cabinetmaker.  She then transitioned to metals and completed the Applied Design program at San Diego State University. Today Christine lives in Los Angeles and enjoys designing and creating small-scale  objects using predominantly sterling silver.  A love of music, Modernism, architecture and craftsmanship drive her design aesthetic, with a focus on casual elegance. All her pieces are one-of-a-kind, handmade and of high quality.
