Welcome to Crafted By Kate!
I have always had a fondness for sterling silver and gemstones. I use sterling silver whenever I can in my handmade gemstone jewelry. Each piece is handmade, so no two items are exactly alike. I photograph every piece I make, so the photos on the site are of the actual item that will be shipped.
You can use the menu above to select jewelry by type and gemstone. Although I have personally handcrafted each item, each piece is categorized as a particular style (Ann, Brooke, etc.). If you find something you like, you can use this feature to find other similar items.
Check out my blog for information about different stones and for updates on new inventory. I am also working on more information pages and a gemstone glossary page. Feel free to let me know if there is something you would like to see there. Please enjoy the site!

Mosaics
I love to make hanging (picture-style) mosaics using smalti, glass and ceramic tiles. I have recently started working on a micromosaic (using tiles that are about 1mm wide) - I am very excited to finally be able to work with such a fine scale!
CustomizationIf you would like to discuss customization of a piece, creation of a new piece, or if you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me at kate@craftedbykate.com. I am often able to adapt certain styles to use different gemstones of your choice.
Digital Landscapes and FractalsAlso check out the amazing digital artwork that my fiancé creates. His site has free wallpaper, fractals, and a CafePress store with a few posters for sale. You can find him at: http://undertow.rooms.cwal.net/.
