Artist - Kendria Thompson
This is me, Kendria Thompson, in my element (my in-home studio). I'm a self-taught metalsmith and lapidary artist who has always had a yearning to create things with my hands. I started the journey towards becoming a metalsmith in 2015 & a lapidarist in 2017. Although I started in 2015, Solid Treasures, LLC has been around since August of 2012. Before metalsmithing and lapidary, I designed beaded gemstone jewelry.
I have always found tranquility in being able to take raw elements and turn them into wearable art or decor. It's extremely rewarding to see my art adorned by people all over the world! I enjoy being able to connect with you all through my passion for metalsmithing and jewelry. Feel free to follow my forever evolving journey on Instagram, where you will occasionally see behind the scenes shots of what I'm currently working on.
