A jewelry designer is a professional who creates decorative items worn for personal adornment, such as rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. They use various materials, including metals, gemstones, and beads, to craft unique pieces that reflect artistic vision and style. Jewelry designers often sketch their ideas and may use computer-aided design (CAD) software to visualize their creations before production.
In addition to creativity, jewelry designers must understand techniques like metalworking and stone setting. They may work independently, run their own businesses, or collaborate with established brands. Successful designers often showcase their work at trade shows and online platforms to reach potential customers.
