Stephanie Dubsky graduated from the University of Applied Arts in Vienna with a Masters degree in product design.
Settling in New York City in 1999 to work for the Guggenheim Museum and the Neue Galerie, where she ran the Design Shop, her persisting love for creating objects by hand led her inevitably to making jewelry.
Every creation is crafted of porcelain, without using molds, making every piece unique. Stephanie finds the tactile process of shaping porcelain by hand a deeply satisfying experience, so apparent in the final piece. After glazing and repeated firings in the kiln, the porcelain is transformed from fragile to strong, yet still embodying a delicate and precious tactility and sensory experience.
Stephanie has recently begun to explore incorporating repurposed elements from heirloom objects such as precious stones or pearls into her pieces, creating jewelry that combines heritage with a contemporary design aesthetic.
