Collection: The Reliquary

The Reliquary | Antique Fine Jewelry Gutted and Rebuilt in NYC

Karen Yost takes antique jewelry and turns it into modern relics.
Real antique fine jewelry—Victorian settings, estate gold, worn fragments—torn apart and rebuilt by hand in NYC. She is pulling apart separate eras into the same piece. Adding modern elements that don't belong, and rebuilding until the jewelry stops behaving.
Not preserved. Possessed.
