Caterina Suttin was first inspired to make jewelry by the Artisans in Mexico and various parts of Central and South America. Starting with beading and macrame, Caterina discovered a love for seeing her work displayed on her friends and family members. In 2003 Caterina was introduced to wire work and to this day she is constantly amazed by how much is possible. It is her passion.

Her intention when wrapping stones is to enhance their natural beauty, allowing their textures, colors and shapes to guide their transformation into wearable art. With every piece she creates, she discovers new ways of creating ornate patterns with wire, while allowing herself to continuously be inspired by many different cultures, arts and types of jewelry from all over the world.

As well as being a successful jeweler, Caterina Suttin is also a renowned Hoop Dance performer and teacher. She has been touring the USA, Mexico, Asia and Europe since early 2012. She was voted co-female hooper of the year and fire hooper of the year in Hooping.org‘s 2014 Hoopie Awards
