Anne Kiel lives in Austin and is a graduate of The University of Texas. She developed an interest in jewelry design after taking art history and metal arts classes as well as traveling in Europe and West Africa. She enjoys incorporating mixed-media into her design which is evident in her current "Curios" collection of vintage illustrations and photographs set in sterling silver. In addition, she experiments with modern form and bold use of color to create eclectic, hand-fabricated works of wearable art.
I'm forever grateful for my family. Their constant support and encouragement have been foremost in helping me accomplish this dream. Thanks to Susan Crofts and Elizabeth Serrato, two business women I am delighted to know and will continue to learn from. Also, thank you to Alifya, Cassie, and Madeline for being beautiful and gracious models as well as Brett and Stacey for their invaluable assistance with this website." - Anne
