Adam Foster

A family trip to Italy as a young boy inspired Adam Foster’s love of beautiful craftsmanship in architecture and art. Florence still remains his favorite place to visit and the Borghese Gallery in Rome his favorite museum. This life-long inspiration translated into a passion for creating exquisitely designed fine jewelry that is also functional and fun to wear. Adam’s aesthetic evolved into a study in contrasts: past and present, traditional and contemporary, delicate and bold. He pairs Old World jewelry-making techniques with the latest technology to create pieces that present a modern sensibility and are easy to wear on a daily basis. He believes that jewelry should reflect the wearer and their lifestyle, and above all, should be worn and loved. Jewelry pieces that remain tucked away and are never worn don’t provide enjoyment.

Born and  raised in St. Louis, Adam received  his Bachelor of Fine Arts in  metalsmithing from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago before returning to St. Louis and began working as a jewelry designer. Over the last 20 years, he’s created a loyal following  of his jewelry designs, both in St. Louise and around the country.  When he is not working, he finds himself cooking, gardening, building, and creating things other than jewelry.
