Julie Cohn’s work is defined by a balance of contrasts, rough and refined, primitive and modern, all pared down to their essence. Trained as a painter and printmaker, her path evolved through bookbinding, textiles, and design, ultimately leading to jewelry as a natural extension of her creative process.

A self-taught jeweler, Cohn works directly with materials rather than sketches, allowing each piece to take shape organically. Drawing inspiration from nature, indigenous craft, and old-world techniques, her designs are meant to be layered and stacked, creating personal compositions that feel both effortless and intentional.

Based in Dallas, Texas, her studio operates as a collaborative space where emerging artists are mentored in both craft and creative practice. Since launching her jewelry collection in 2011, Cohn has continued to create pieces that reflect a thoughtful, art-driven approach to design.
