Ashtyn Williams is a self-taught artist and jeweller based in Toronto.
Her work and reverse eponymous jewelry brand, NYTHSA, are rooted in experimental design where her pieces are an offering of beauty in its most sculptural and wearable form. Ashtyn has transformed from beadwork to metal smithing by her process that is both intuitive and intentional. By combining fabrication and lost wax casting techniques, her medium primarily consists of sterling silver and semi-precious gemstones.
Deeply inspired by Art Deco, her focus falls on the smallest of details worthy of the designer’s attention. Statement pieces with a sense of subtly captures her passion of effortless glamour. Using craftsmanship to adorn the body, Ashtyn creates jewelry that feels like an extension of the self to bring back sentimentality into the objects we own.
