Kassandra Nicholson

A graduate gemologist, goldsmith and designer with formal training from the Gemological Institute of America in Carlsbad, CA and New York, NY, Kassandra Nicholson has been designing fine jewelry since 2002. After perfecting her craft as a bench jeweler for Fred Leighton in New York City, Nicholson began her own eponymous brand.  Fueled by a belief that jewelry acts as emotional armor, shielding the wearer through life’s highs and lows and cultivating a power and energy from life’s journeys, Kassandra Nicholson is an intuitive designer and maker able to capture emotion in her creations. She carves and adds texture to her pieces using the ancient technique of lost wax sculpture, giving the finished jewelry a unique comfort.

All pieces are bespoke and hand crafted in Los Angeles, CA using sustainable metals, unique gemstones and reclaimed antique or vintage diamonds.
