nikki couppee

Nikki's collection talks about the different functions jewelry performs in society. Objects of personal adornment have the ability to define a person's social status, question value and serve as a redeemable investment. Nikki is seeking to create opulent jewelry that is reminiscent of royal jewelry, only made in quotidian materials instead of precious gems and materials. Nikki received her BFA from the University of Georgia and a MFA in jewelry from Kent State. She lives in Oakland, CA.
