Casey Perez Jewelry

ABOUT THE BRAND: Artifacts is an independent jewelry line based in New York City by designer Casey Perez. Consciously designed and locally made, her line of modern, sculptural pieces aims to bring artful design and sustainable craftsmanship together. Each collection draws inspiration from an artful lexicon of modernist shapes and forms. Bold yet refined, Artifacts is a celebration of form and beauty that aims to inspire and delight the woman who wears it. ABOUT THE DESIGNER: 1st generation, Mexican-American designer Casey Perez found her way to jewelry unexpectedly. After moving to New York to study at New York University, she stumbled upon a metalsmithing course where she learned centuries old techniques to transform raw materials and bring her ideas to life. It was this alchemical process that immediately drew Casey to jewelry after that and inspired her to embark on a new path. Largely self-taught, Casey honed her skills through years of practice as well as working for companies like Pamela Love, Urban Outfitters and Madewell. Casey’s love of art and design greatly informs her work, drawing inspiration from architecture, to sculpture, to furniture. The results are unique handcrafted pieces that are at once visual explorations and intimate expressions.
