About the artist.

Michael Hoyer (she/her) is a fifth-generation Boulderite, and artist and teacher of many stripes. She handcrafts modern, clean-lined jewelry that features pleasingly-precise patterns and negative-space geometric shapes. Michael finds refuge from the chaos of the day-to-day in the metalsmithing studio, and she aims to pass on some measure of that calm to those who wear her pieces through their comforting solidity, structure, and shine.
