Katt Wamsley is inspired by stones. She loves their solidity, their earthiness and natural power. She loves transforming something that is everywhere, and often barely noticed, into a colorful, wearable work of art for everyone to notice and truly see.
With over 20 years of experience in creating beautiful jewelry, her hands practically whir as they wrap a stone in wire, hugging and caressing its curves, drawing out its colors, developing its personality, and shaping it into a soon to be cherished earring, pendant, or other wearable piece. While the eye captures the perfection of her wire wrapping, the heart captures the equally perfect aesthetic of her creations.
Katt’s creative journey has attracted a wide national audience, although her home is in Newport where waves, whales, and mermaids have swum their way into her designs. Self-taught and continually learning, Katt looks forward to meeting, greeting, and dressing more stones as she continues to create beauty for a living.
