A well traveled, internationally represented metal smith residing in Park City, Utah. Rebekah Abrams is one of the most exciting young jewelry designers in the U.S. Her style, a deceiving blend of elegance and simplicity, is created with both silver and gold in designs that cascade from the necks, ears, and wrists of her delighted customers from New York to Singapore. The current pieces, all bearing distinct DNA from her original "Big O" pendant, dash off playfully in all kinds of directions, from linked ringlet earrings to square series necklaces that evoke Alice Through the Looking Glass or the doors of perception.

"Actually," says Abrams, "I'm just trying to have fun with my work. Selling in boutiques in the big cities demands a certian level of couture, but living in a place like Park City means I'm always conscious about making pieces that are light and easy to wear." Her image as a small-town jeweler belies an impressive pedigree that include apprenticeships in Boston and Steamboat, Colorado, as well as time spent studying ancient metal smithing technique and lapidary in India and with the masters at Fuji Studies in Florence, Italy. And her work bridges the gap from the old world to popular culture, being featured in magazines like Lucky and spotted on the necks of celeberties in In Touch, US Weekly, and Life and Style.
