Meet Cara

Hi there! I'm Cara, the designer, maker and everything in between behind
Cara Carter Jewelry. My jewelry journey began in 2016 with metalsmithing classes at the Creative Side Jewelry Academy in Austin, Texas. Since then, I've meticulously handcrafted every piece in my personal studio, using time-honored metalsmithing techniques that ensure each piece is a unique and enduring heirloom.

When you explore my collection, you'll discover a blend of design philosophies. My designs range from modern and minimalist pieces for effortless everyday wear to unique, travel- and nature-inspired creations. The minimalist pieces offer timeless elegance, perfect for work or travel, while the travel- and nature-inspired pieces, featuring gemstones and organic elements, capture the beauty of the world around us.
