The Artifact House Jewelry
Nicole Klotz, the owner and artist behind The Artifact House, has always loved art and through her many trips to museums and galleries she fell in love with the authenticity of handmade artifacts from ancient cultures. She pursued art in college and started as a ceramic artist making and selling pottery. She found her way to making jewelry when she wanted a pair of earrings made from her favorite material - clay. Her natural curiosity and creativity keeps her play with new ideas, shapes, and textures hoping to continue to provide people with unique and authentically handmade pieces to add to their collection.
