Metalsmith Liz from WI

Metalsmith Liz from WI Metalsmith Liz from WI has an exhibition in Italy, Oct 2024! Creating a variety of wearable art, Casual Ore Formal has a range of stock items on hand.

Casual Ore Formal was named for the direction of Elizabeth’s work, since many pieces can be worn in both an everyday and black tie environment. Pushing the limits of design while still revisiting traditional methods, best described her creative process when making jewelry. However, Elizabeth enjoys working one on one with individuals discussing design ideas and exploring the creative processes tog

ether through custom work. Creating a solid base academically, Elizabeth has been working in her craft of metals for 15 years. First graduating from UW-Eau Claire (BA) with art and business. Continuing on, to become well rounded in the field, Elizabeth sought training at other institution for differing perspectives, studying at UW-La Crosse; University of Limerick, Ireland; Kilkenny School of Crafts, Ireland; Penland School of Crafts, North Carolina. Throughout this time she has also held various apprenticeships gaining insight into business dealings and the retail jewelry industry. Then through her passion, Casual Ore Formal was born. Casual Ore Formal, retails jeweler designer Metalsmith Liz Stingl’s original, handmade jewelry designs at Artisan Forge Studios in Eau Claire, WI. Elizabeth also visits differing art school locations sharing her knowledge through workshops and presentations.

As many of you know, I’ve spent years refining my jewelry practice through hand-carving, casting, and stone setting inspired by birch bark and natural forms. Opportunities like this can genuinely change the trajectory of an artist’s career.

Thank you for believing in my work and helping independent artists continue creating. 💜

STOP—new business cards in the house 🚪🔥What? What?

Metalsmith Liz is up to something… 👀

Birch Bark Jewelry has been off the market for years, while Liz’s work hit international stages…

And now?

Yeah… something’s coming.

Stay tuned. We’ll be shedding light on it soon.

(Last slide: Orie 🐶 is giving side-eye because she doesn’t like the suspense 😒) ✌️

Hey folks in the jewelry world and beyond! Today I want to give a shout-out to an amazing nonprofit that has supported so many of us in the field over the years.

The Society of North American Goldsmiths (SNAG) is a true connector of creators, ideas, and opportunities within the jewelry and metals community. Their commitment to thoughtful dialogue, professional development, and the sharing of knowledge across our field continues to strengthen and inspire our industry.

I recently had the chance to connect with Executive Director Brienne Rosner and her team at SNAG @ Tucson in February. I’m always impressed by the variety of programming they bring to the table (in-person and virtual) and how intentionally they create spaces for learning, conversation, and community.

Just wanted to share the love today! 💖

A thought I’ve been sitting with lately…

When athletes compete in the Olympics, their uniforms and promotional material carry sponsors who believe in them and their work.

When artists exhibit internationally, our names are listed beside our countries too. In many ways, that is our version of the Olympics.

This year I am preparing a new piece that could go to Venice Design Week, inspired by the mysterious beauty, life grit, and elegance of the Venetian carnival world. The work is currently in progress, and I’m excited to share a glimpse.

Here is the brooch when it was first birthed from its water casting process. Signature added.

This all has me thinking about something I’d love to see more of in the arts: artist sponsorships. Partnerships where businesses champion creative work and become part of the story when that artwork travels internationally.

When I show work abroad, I represent not only myself, but also Wisconsin and the USA.

If a business or organization ever wanted to partner with Metalsmith Liz on opportunities like this, I’d welcome the conversation. Leading a hand makes us all stronger.

For now—back to the bench. Venezia is calling.
