Barbara Heinrich established her studio in Rochester, New York in 1986, the year after she graduated from RIT. Since then Barbara Heinrich Studio has developed a recognizable style which consists of a distinctive visual vocabulary marked by the juxtaposition of matte and burnished surfaces. The studio has become a recognized name among galleries and collectors of contemporary artist jewelry.

The identity of Barbara Heinrich Studio is founded on originality of design, excellence in craftsmanship and wearability. Each piece made at the workshop is stamped with the studio’s registered trademark, the oak leaf.

The team of jewelers at the studio shares a high level of technical know-how and consists of apprentices, recent college graduates and master goldsmiths. They are supported by a professional office staff, known by it’s customers for excellence of service and promptness. All of the new pieces are now being digitally recorded and stored and can easily be sent by email.  

There is a constant flow of new pieces at the studio, prompted by regular participation in tradeshows as well as one person gallery shows. Please refer to the events calendar for a current listing of scheduled shows.
