Extasia vintage costume jewelry
Located in Nevada City, California, Extasia Inc. has been operating jewelry business for 33 years. Founded by Stefanie Freydont in 1989, Extasia craftsmen create jewelry, using original old English and French designs. Based on the ancient technique of “intaglio” (glass carving), a dozen of Extasia make Victorian jewelry by hand. Traditionally, they use high quality red bronze, silvering and gilding for frames.
In her youth, Stefanie was trained blacksmithing in gold and silver and became an accomplished designer, winning awards for her student work while still in high school. Currently, 72-year-old Stefanie is still active living in Nevada City, CA, and hundreds of stores around the world, from the US and Europe to Japan and Australia sell her jewelry.
