The Artist

Made by one pair of hands

I’m Jenna Knight, the Choctaw silversmith behind Strong Medicine Studio.

I make jewelry that has a presence. Substantial silver, unusual stones, something you keep looking at on your own hand. I’m drawn to the way a stone catches light, the marks left by working metal, and the feeling that a piece belongs to someone before they’ve found it.

The name Strong Medicine comes from my relationship with stones, symbolism, and intention. Their metaphysical associations are part of how I choose and work with them. Beauty matters to me, and so does meaning.

Mount Shasta, the forest, and the things I collect all find their way into my work. Each piece begins with something that catches my attention and becomes something I want to put into the world. What it means to you becomes part of its story.

Pieces from earlier collections, shown so the range of the bench is visible beyond what is available today: lighter cases, vessels, and the fire opal work.
