Erich M
Senior Designer | Bellevue Studio
GIA AJP
Available for in-studio and virtual consultations

I'm a freelance illustrator and exhibiting painter who started out as an expatriate living in the heart of Austria before moving to the United States. My artwork has been exhibited in galleries across the U.S., Europe, and Australia.

In 2011, I began pursuing a career in fine jewelry, starting with an AJP certification from the Gemological Institute of America. Since then, I’ve been fortunate to apply my background in art to designing custom engagement, wedding, and family jewelry.


Drawing on multicultural inspirations from both sides of the Atlantic, my style blends elements of Art Deco and Art Nouveau, often with a focus on striking combinations of colored gemstones.

I believe deeply in the unique power of fine jewelry to tell the story of its wearer. For me, each design is an opportunity to capture the personality, history, and spirit of the person it’s made for.
