Aleta K
Designer | Bellevue Studio
GIA Graduate Gemologist
Available for in-studio consultation
I bring over 20 years of experience in the jewelry industry, along with a lifelong passion for gemstones and design that began in childhood. I’m a proud graduate of the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), where I completed the Gemology, Jeweler, Design, and Applied Jewelry Arts programs. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work in various facets of the industry - including design, sales, and gemstone buying - which has allowed me to hone a well-rounded and deeply informed approach to custom jewelry.
Creativity has always been at the heart of what I do. Outside of work, I enjoy drawing, painting, and crafting pieces for my own bohemian-inspired jewelry line. My journey has taken me from New Orleans to England, and from California to Texas. These travels have deeply influenced both my perspective and my design style.
Now, I’ve found my home in Seattle - a city my husband and I have long admired. I find endless inspiration in the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest and love channeling that into meaningful, custom designs. For me, the most rewarding part of this work is seeing the joy on a client’s face when their vision becomes a reality.
