About AnnKat Designs

AnnKat Designs offers the thoughtful creations of Ann Kathryn Kehoe. Ann Kathryn is a trained metalsmith, lapidary artist & Reiki practitioner living in Kansas City, Missouri.

Ann Kathryn’s creative process is guided by dreams, visions & intuitive messages. Each object comes to form at its own pace, infused with meaning & depth through every step of development. These objects have their own unique spirit even before production begins. Ann Kathryn honors this spirit by adorning each creation with thoughtful details of symbology & hidden messages, which feel authentic to the form.

The work offered here is created with love & intention. Each piece has been made with your well-being in mind & may be used as a tool for self-awareness & personal growth. Every design has something special to offer, just as each gemstone has its own unique healing properties. Additionally, Ann Kathryn cleanses each design before they ship & infuses them with Reiki, to offer potent healing energy.

When choosing a healing tool for yourself or a loved one, take a moment to calm your mind & let your spirit guide you. Trust your intuition.

A glimpse into the creation process…

'‘Every piece offered here at AnnKat Designs has been created by my own two hands using traditional metalsmithing techniques. These techniques include hand-stamping, forging, soldering, keum-boo, enameling, wax-carving, casting & stone-setting. I have obtained a BFA in Metals/Jewelry Design and have also been trained in CAD/CAM & Lapidary Arts. I personally select each gemstone as guided by spirit & use lapidary machines to cut & polish stones to any size & shape desired for one-of-a-kind & custom projects. My jewelry shop is always changing & new work is released in small collections online throughout the year. If you would like to be notified when new designs are released, please sign up for my email list. Additionally, if you are interested in working with me to design a custom piece, please take a look at my availability listed on the ‘Custom Design’ page first. I enjoy taking on select custom designs as time & energy allows.”

Light & Love, Ann Kathryn
