Ohio-based jeweler and poet Teresa Kiplinger joins host Mark Nelson in this episode of For the Love of Jewelers. She shares her journey from graphic design to jewelry making and how the visual language she developed in college—storytelling, symbolism, and imagery—continues to shape her work at the bench. Teresa talks about blending poetry and metal to create one-of-a-kind pieces infused with depth and soul.
The conversation also explores her favorite tools, including her latest creative obsession: the Bonny Doon hydraulic press. Teresa explains how this tool has opened a new chapter in her practice, allowing her to form locket-style pieces from flat sheets of metal engraved with entire poems.
