Jewelry Designer and Metalsmith
Jewelry designer Becky Kelso believes in following her heart, instead following what's hip. Kelso was working on becoming a costume designer, studying illustration and fashion design at the Fashion Institute in Southern California. However, during the two years she spent living in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Kelso began to explore the art of jewelry making.

Discreetly excessive yet casual, this Becky Kelso ring is perfect for any occasion. Calcite face measures 5/8"w x 3/8"h, and is accentuated by its bold 14k gold setting and band.

Her jewelry has been featured in various magazines such as Vogue, British Vogue, Italian Elle, InStyle, Lucky, New York Times magazine, and Martha Stewart Weddings. With such delicacy found in all of Kelso's creations, it's no wonder that her jewelry is highly coveted by some of Hollywood's style stars, including Cate Blanchett, Penelope Cruz, and Cameron Diaz.

Serving as apprentice to a jeweler and silversmith in Mexico, Becky Kelso quickly learned the tricks of the trade and debuted her own collection in 1995. Kelso's collections feature timeless pieces that reflect her travels - especially to Morocco and Turkey - as well as her many cross-cultural interests.

The beauty in Becky Kelso's designs is rooted in her life. Her education, frequent travels, and upbringing in a family who appreciate art - all these important elements influence the creation of her jewelry collection. Fascinated at an early age by her mother's and grandmother's antique jewelry, Becky now uses colorful gemstones to creative timeless pieces that feel like heirlooms the minute you put them on.

Becky's designs utilize many jewelry techniques to create her intricate jewelry designs, including fabricating, engraving, granulation, casting, forging, and wire wrapping. Her designs come in sterling silver, 14k and 18k yellow and rose Gold. Her collection includes floral-carved, faceted, and rose-cut stones such as Pink Tourmaline, Aquamarine, and Rubies, often set in Lacylinks bezels. The overall appearance is delicate, feminine and timeless.
