Chi* Creations Contemporary Jewelry

Chi is a studio jeweler who lives and works in North Shore, she studied at the prestigious Parsons School of Design in New York City receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree (Metal Major).  Chi design and creates jewelry with a contemporary look, through the simplicity of form and textures. Her jewelry reflects the integration of past and present cultures with a twist of East meets West. Chi grew up in an artistic family with her father as a classic Oriental watercolors on silk painter and a sister who indulged in contemporary fine art. Creating and sharing art together was a natural and stimulating interest in their daily lives. Her inspirations are juxtaposed between her traditional Asian roots and metropolitan New York City upbringing.

Sterling silver is the main material that Chi uses for her jewelry with some addition of karat gold, gold-filled, vermeil as well as accents of semi-precious and pearls. Most of her pieces are made in a combination of different techniques such as casting, fabrication, forming, roller printing and wire weaving and crocheting with beads. She finishes her pieces in high polish, engraved textures and oxidized black.
