About the Artist

My name is Asya Oravec and I am a metalsmith, taught by metal artists, silversmiths, bench jewelers, couture designers, and blacksmiths. I design and create my own jewelry from scratch with care, thought, excitement, and fire!🔥 My approach is artistic not entrepreneurial so I make one piece at a time, which makes each piece one of a kind.

I am local to Metro Detroit in Michigan, USA and I market my work at art shows, galleries, and online on this website, on Instagram, and on Facebook. I am a member of Michigan Silversmiths Guild and I have previously represented the guild in the Ann Arbor South University Art Fair.

I get my influences from my life experiences and I create intuitively, often letting the metal tell me what it wants to become. The ideas that pop into my head and come to life through metal reflect who I am. I am where I’m supposed to be, doing what I love.

My favorite metal is sterling silver, but I love incorporating gold accents, patina, and gemstones into my work. I also create with brass, bronze, and copper. The aesthetic of mixed metals appeals to me and fits into my vision and artistic approach that emphasizes textures and contrasts.
