InBloom Jewelry Marks One Year of Craft-Focused FACETED Seminars

Held at 100 E. Patrick Street, the series challenges the traditional retail experience by framing jewelry as a narrative process rather than a static product. Over the past twelve months, the sessions have explored diverse metalworking disciplines, ranging from the ancient art of granulation and Japanese Mokume-Gane to contemporary precision gemstone cutting and digital CAD modeling. By inviting guests to observe the handwork and experimentation required for custom design, the studio aims to foster a deeper appreciation for the labor behind heirloom-quality pieces.

Founder and lead designer Stacey Krantz describes the initiative as a way to open the studio doors and bridge the gap between bench work and the public. These intimate sessions feature collaborations with guest experts, such as gem cutter Katie Walsh, and offer a candid look at both traditional tools and modern technology. As the studio prepares for its next installment, Artistic CAD, on July 11, 2026, the ongoing program continues to position InBloom as a hub for artistic education rather than a conventional showroom.
