Sisters Kris and Kim Nations grew up in the Southwest playing with beads, rocks, and metal. During the summers, their mother, an artist, and teacher, took them on road trips throughout the Southwest desert. Selling her creations at art shows along the way, she sparked the girls’ inspiration to create.
In the early 2000, while they were living in San Francisco, Kris started to make jewelry to give as gifts. Soon she was selling her creations to local shops. Working desk jobs by day and making jewelry and packing boxes at night, Kris and Kim grew the business. Today, their women owned and operated business operates out of a studio in Half Moon Bay, California. There, they design jewelry that’s part Bohemian, part modernism, part in-your-face statement, or, as they describe it, “kind of like Alexander Calder meets Dolly Parton.”
