Catherine's journey into jewelry began with a passion for craftsmanship, studying jewelry making and classical metalsmithing. However, it was her five-year global adventure with her husband that truly ignited her creative spark. Immersed in diverse cultures and apprenticing with artisans worldwide, Catherine launched Catherine Weitzman Jewelry in San Francisco in 2000. In 2004, she relocated to Hawaii, establishing a studio where they still handcraft every piece.

The designs reflect an integration of Catherine’s rich experiences: deeply informed by her travels, her childhood in the city, her love of nature and water. Each piece carries a story, connecting the designer, the hands that made it, and the person who sees it, wears it, and makes it her own.
