Jewelry & Collage with a Touch of Nostalgia
With a passion for old treasures, Christine Stoll creates jewelry, keychains, and collage with a history. Vintage and repurposed items feature prominently in Christine’s creations. She relishes the time spent leafing through vintage dictionaries, atlases, gas station maps, and other ephemera for her creations, preserving bits of the past with resin. Each piece includes a descriptive tag highlighting the items used in the creation…a story for the recipient. :: Christine returned to art in 2010 after a career in non-profit development, following the death of her incredibly creative Grandma Kathy (who passed down her jewelry tools and supplies). Christine’s grandma promised to come back as robin in her afterlife. You will find robins and other birds in many of Christine’s creations. Her jewelry incorporates her love of vintage with a mix of modern inspired by Grandma Kathy. :: Each item is handmade by Christine (with some of Grandma Kathy’s tools) in a shared studio in downtown Issaquah, Washington. :: A percentage of proceeds is donated to ovarian cancer research in memory of Christine’s Grandma Kathy.
