KATKIM is made in Los Angeles by a small network of highly skilled jewelers that we work with closely. From model making and casting to setting and finishing, each piece passes through specialized hands, with Kat remaining involved throughout. This proximity allows ideas to be tested, details refined, and the integrity of the original design carried through to the finished piece.

Our Manhattan Beach showroom offers a quieter, more personal way to experience KATKIM. Discover the collection, spend time with the pieces, explore materials and stones or sit down with us to develop something of your own. The experience is intentionally intimate, with room for conversation and discovery.

Our designs often appear simple, but simplicity leaves little room for compromise. Every curve, setting and proportion is considered, requiring precision at each stage of making. Working closely with skilled artisans, we refine each piece until every detail feels essential to the whole.

We approach materials as part of the design itself. Each KATKIM piece is created in 18K gold or platinum, with diamonds and gemstones selected for their quality, character and relationship to form. Every choice is considered, from the cut and proportion of a stone to the tone, weight and finish of the metal surrounding it.

Our diamonds are conflict-free and sourced in accordance with the Kimberley Process, and we use recycled gold whenever possible. As a member of Ethical Metalsmiths, we remain committed to thoughtful sourcing, transparency and continually improving the choices we make.
