About Me
Thanks for stopping by! I'm Kristin, designer and maker here at Riven Revive Jewelry. I live on 20 acres in the beautiful North Carolina mountains. When I'm not designing jewelry, I'm working on my MBA, running a company as a Chief Technology Officer, working in my garden or drinking coffee.
​
FUN FACTS: I grew up as a Missionary kid and have been to 30 countries. I've always been fascinated by gems, rocks and fossils and considered becoming a paleontologist. I love canning and baking and DIY everything and hate doing laundry.
Riven Revive
RIVEN - broken, split apart
REVIVE - restore to life
​
"What's with that name?" When I started Riven Revive Jewelry, much of what was happening in my life was broken. I am a firm believer that there can be beauty in the broken, so when I started creating jewelry, I decided to try to use elements that were recycled, repurposed, or ethically sourced if possibly. So at Riven Revive, my purpose is restoring life to the broken.
