Jester Swink is my alter ego—a name gifted by a writer friend who saw in me, Rae Rodriguez, a blend of natural whimsy, boldness, and vintage flair. She embodies the entertainer, the modern vintage spirit who delights in crafting spaces and adornments that are anything but ordinary.

After years in the corporate world, I felt the pull toward something more soulful. What began as a single art fair evolved into a full-time journey of creating pieces that bring joy and meaning to everyday life.

I believe in art that resonates—pieces that are not just beautiful but meaningful. Each creation is a testament to individuality, designed to connect with your unique story.

In a world of mass production, I choose intention. Every piece is handcrafted in my Santa Cruz Mountains studio, using sustainable materials to create lasting art that speaks to the soul.

Whether it's a necklace that becomes your signature or a wall hanging that transforms your space, my work is crafted to bring beauty and authenticity into your life.

Nestled among the redwoods, my studio is where inspiration flows. Here, metal becomes charm, clay takes form, and ideas materialize into tangible expressions of art.

Thank you. By choosing Jester Swink, you're embracing the beauty of handmade art and supporting a woman-owned, USA-based small business rooted in sustainability and soulful design.

With gratitude,
Rae
