Cassi—Ikayuaq—Káa nuk

Born and raised in Southeast Alaska on the island of Prince Wales, Cassi loves everything outdoors and sports. She attended the University of Alaska Fairbanks as a student athlete where she obtained her Undergrad in Communication and a Masters in Business Administration. She met the love of her life at the University and they have settled into their first home in Fairbanks, Alaska. In the winter of 2024 they welcomed their first child together. Cassi found a passion for metal smithing after taking the class to fulfill an art credit —she continued to find a way to take the course every semester until graduation. Now--taking a leap of faith and investing in an at home studio, she continues to chase her love for art, creating and continually learning.

Ariel Fish
Ariel Fish

I grew up on an island in Southeast Alaska, which is where my love of fish comes from. I loved salmon and halibut fishing with my family in the summer, where we were able to provide food to eat throughout the winter months. This is a representation of that for me. A flashy fish and three little bubbles!

This is roughly an 18” necklace that was assembled piece by piece. Each jump ring was handmade, chain cut to length, attached to hook/clasp and connected to the fish pendant. The fish pendant consists of all sterling silver bezels and prong settings.

This one in particular gives me Ariel from the Little Mermaid vibes!

Stones: lab purple sapphire faceted heart, tsavorite garnet and 3 graduated design zircon.
