About Saint Claude Jewelry
The artistic mission of Saint Claude is to imbue everyday adornments with significance and history, pushing the wearer to see more than what meets the eye in ordinary objects. They use the ancient lost-wax technique, cire-perdue, to sculpt and mold their designs from wax before casting them in precious metals. The pieces themselves represent the duality of beauty and darkness so often found in New Orleans. Sarah Killen Ellman is the artist and designer behind Saint Claude. Sarah’s Saint Claude alias was derived from a street in the Bywater neighborhood where her first studio was located.
