Fredricka Kulicke is a Jewelry Designer and Goldsmith, as well teaching jewelry making and lapidary at the Fredricka Kulicke School of Jewelry Arts. Her work is inspired by Gold Antiquities exhibited in Museums throughout the world.

Ms. Kulicke believes that in today's high-tech world, the skill of the human hand is frequently lost to the mass production capabilities of modern machinery. Modern jewelry often focuses on perfectly cut, flawless gemstones, set in invisible settings, made of low-karat pale gold. She prefers natural gem crystals and hand-cut cabochons set in high-karat yellow gold settings, which emphasize the art of the goldsmith.
