She shares her unique experience of making jewellery in an extreme environment, discussing how she adapts her techniques to the cold and dry conditions, and how she sources her materials. She also talks about her journey into silversmithing, her inspirations from nature and her travels, and her plans for Nunatak Jewellery after returning to Australia.

This is a fascinating insight into the skills you need to make jewellery in a challenging place including resourcefulness and problem-solving skills.

About Kasey

Nunatak is a handmade silver jewellery brand created in one of the most remote and extreme environments on Earth - Antarctica. Founded in 2025 by Kasey during her fourth season on the icy continent, Nunatak began as a creative outlet to keep her hands and mind busy during the long, cold polar winter. What started with a few quiet hours at the workbench in a research station has grown into a deeply personal craft, shaped by experience, resilience, and a love for untamed places.

Kasey has been making silver jewellery since 2021, creating pieces both at the edge of the world and back home in Tasmania, Australia, where the wilderness is just as inspiring. With a background in environmental engineering, her work is grounded in a respect for nature’s forms, materials, and stories. Each design is handcrafted with intention, simple, strong, and made to last, just like the adventurers who wear them.
