handmade jewelery
the shapes
My rings come in a variety of shapes - from slim to bold and chunky. The gemstones I use range from round to oval to square cuts - and sometimes even a mix, especially if a ring features two stones. I’m constantly working on new designs with different shapes and combinations - you’ll always find the latest updates here.

the story
Behind kliem is me - Kathi Kliem. I taught myself how to silversmith. The very first spark came from a friend of my cousin in Hong Kong, where I made my first ring ever - completely by hand. I was hooked right away. A few months later, back home in Münster, I started hammering, melting, setting stones - I couldn’t stop. What started as a curious experiment quickly turned into a full-blown passion. And now? Every piece I create carries a bit of that beginning and a whole lot of love.
recycled material
I use recycled materials: 925 sterling silver and 585er gold from old jewelry.
handmade
Each piece is handmade by me, starting from melting down the metal all the way to the final polish.
gems
I work with real gemstones - citrine, aquamarine, and more. If you have something special in mind, like pearls, just let me know.
about me
I’m Kathi Kliem. I didn’t start out in jewelry - I actually studied Human Biology with a focus on neuroscience. But I’ve always been torn between science and creativity. Crafting, creating, working with my hands - that’s always been my thing. Traveling plays a huge role in my life. It’s where I learn, grow, and meet people who inspire me. It was actually during a trip to Hong Kong that I made my very first ring - and I was instantly hooked. Now I split my time between making chunky silver rings, working in marketing, and building automation workflows. I love mixing the hands-on with the high-tech. Oh, and somewhere along the way, I fell in love with surfing. These days, I try to shape my life so I can stay close to the ocean - whenever and wherever possible.
