THE STUDIO NAVARRI EXPERIENCE

With more than 24 years at the jeweler's bench, I believe the best learning happens when creativity and craftsmanship come together. My workshops are designed to be welcoming, inspiring, and fun—where you'll master traditional artisan techniques, gain the confidence to create with purpose, and begin developing the signature style that makes your jewelry unmistakably your own. Every class is an opportunity to create, connect, and leave with skills that will last a lifetime.

ABOUT THE STUDIO

I'm excited to invite you to discover Studio Navarri — a small private jewelry studio designed to inspire creativity, craftsmanship, and artistry. Whether you’re curious about jewelry making or dreaming of becoming a jewelry designer and artist, Studio Navarri has everything you need to begin your journey.

Inside the studio, you’ll find two fully equipped jewelers' benches where you can get a true feel for the craft and learn how a professional bench is set up. You’ll work with a Foredom Flex Shaft — the jeweler’s version of an ultra-powerful Dremel.

We’ll gather around a large farmhouse table with plenty of room to spread out, create, learn, and share ideas in a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere.

Studio Navarri also features a finishing and polishing machine with built-in vents to help you achieve an incredible high shine, plus a rolling mill for creating beautiful textures and patterns in metal. Add in great lighting, a welcoming creative atmosphere, and our adorable little studio puppy, Kinki, and you have the perfect place to learn, create, and be inspired.

PLEASE NOTE: the studio is in my home and is a full 2 car garage devoted exclusively to the studio, and nothing else. Because it is a garage... it may be a bit warm during the hottest summer days. It is air conditioned but can get a little warm in late afternoons. 

If the forecast is for extreme heat, I can move us to my dining/kitchen area, and since I'm accustomed to teaching away from the studio for years, I can set us up nicely with everything we'll need}.

Always creating with love and intention {and a bit of magic},
