Lucina K: Wearable Art That Tells Your Story
Handcrafted 14K Gold Jewelry, Sterling Silver, and Pewter Gifts from Florida Artist Lori Strickland
Quincy, Florida – June 2026 – Lucina K creates sculptural jewelry and accessories that transform meaningful moments into lasting heirlooms. Founded nearly 20 years ago by artist Lori Strickland and her husband, Charles, this line was first available in their Glasshopper Gallery of American Craft. The essence of the brand blends timeless craftsmanship with artistic storytelling.
Every jewelry piece begins as a wax sculpture carved by Lori Strickland that is then cast using the traditional lost-wax process in 14K gold or sterling silver. Large sculptural giftware also starts as wax and is cast into lead-free pewter.
Signature collections include:
- Deco Collection – Bold geometric sophistication
- Honey Bee Collection – Sweet hexagonal symmetry
- Art & Architecture Collection – Historical elegance meets modern flair
- Flora & Fauna Collection – Nature-inspired birds, blooms, and wildlife
Lucina K pieces are sold through boutiques, catalogs, resorts, and online, and have been featured on the front of major catalogs including Uncommon Goods, Smithsonian, and BBC’s Acorn Catalog.
