Karen Williams of Afterglow Design Co is a writer, climber, trail runner, silversmith, and dog mom. Her work is inspired by and made to be enjoyed in the great outdoors, and she loves nothing more than to climb a dusty desert crack while wearing her favorite pair of shiny earrings.

Afterglow pieces are designed to remind you of your favorite memories; the ones made during a day of type 2 fun, or while watching the most perfect alpine sunrise, or that time you met your best friend miles down a winding singletrack trail.

Karen crafts her pieces using traditional silversmithing practices in her home studio. Every item is made by hand, and care is taken to source her stones ethically from small-batch lapidary artists.
