Master Jeweler and Fearless Leader

Victoria Ashley Kerkela

Being raised by an artist in one of the most beautiful coastal cities, Victoria has always been drawn toward beauty. At the age of 15, Victoria began her love affair with jewelry art. She found herself immersed in the art scene during her high school years, eventually enrolling in the Visual and Performing Arts program at Indian River Charter High School where she studied and volunteered at the Vero Beach Museum of Art. After Graduation, Victoria became an apprentice jeweler under John Michael Mathews, and she learned by example how to expertly repair and create exquisite Jewelry.

Her artistry and attention to detail set her apart in the community, where she has developed a reputation as one of the Treasure Coast’s premier master jewelers. Now, Victoria has set out to bring a new level of artistry and hospitality to the Vero Beach art scene. Her passion to make jewelry that is unique and personalized is at the forefront of our approach to enhancing your jewelry experience, as is her drive to build a stronger, more sustainable community.
