A love for art in all forms started very early for Facets Artisan Jewelry Designer, Carol Skiles. Being inspired by the many different processes, she acquired a passion to create fine jewelry using sterling silver and sea glass.

"I have always had an innate desire to express myself in whatever I do. Metalsmithing feeds my need to create while designing beautiful wearable jewelry to pass down for generations to come."

Carol has had a love for the sentimental ties jewelry holds for a person, place, or event in one's life. Combined with her love for the ocean, Carol's jewelry designs are inspired by the sea and the ever-changing rhythm of the tide.
