What started out as a knife making hobby at a young age eventually morphed into a jewelry making business. As teen and young adult, Aric set up a forge in his backyard to create knives from scrap pieces of metal. His interest grew in metal working throughout the years as he learned different techniques of metal forming and metal plating. Ultimately, his passion led him to the fine art of jewelry making. He makes all the pieces as well as the settings by forming the metals into different shapes and soldering them together. Most of the pieces also features stones that showcase different stone setting techniques.
