Harmony, balance, and unity are the watchwords of jewelry designer Kristen Baird’s work. Kristen’s sculptural, one-of-a-kind pieces embody drama without sacrificing functionality. Her aesthetic pays homage to motifs found in nature—waterfalls, honeycomb, rain, flora—while also gracefully nodding to her interest in architecture. Kristen’s work displays a unique ability to meld disparate influences into jewelry that is structural but also seems as though it might have sprung organically from the natural world. Her work treats nature as a dance, never still and always changing, often capturing a transitory moment, such as the splash of water or the slow ooze of honeycomb. Underlying her inspirations is a design aesthetic that embraces minimalism and smooth, clean lines which allows her to seamlessly meld the natural with the man-made.

The values of quality and craftsmanship are integral to Kristen’s work. She works with materials of the highest quality and crafts each piece by hand. She uses gold and sterling silver with gemstones and glass to create an interplay of texture and color that brings her beautiful and timeless creations to life.

Kristen is originally from Richmond, VA. She graduated from Savannah College and Art and Design in 2012 and holds a BFA in Metals and Jewelry. Her work has been purchased by a number of influential individuals both in the United States and abroad. Kristen and her work have been featured by Paprika Southern, Adobe, Behance, SCAD, Elle.com, and Lark Books among others. Kristen currently lives and works in historic downtown Savannah. Read Less

As an artist, I design my jewelry to be elegant with a touch of personality and whimsy. I strive to create sculptural pieces that are unique in both form and concept. I enjoy using gold and sterling silver with gemstones and glass for added splashes of color. When worn, I want my jewelry to create an interaction between the wearer and the viewer.
