About Kinley Jewelry

Kinley Jewelry is a boho style handmade jewelry brand based in Carbondale, IL. Owner, designer and maker Chris McKinley works from her home-based studio creating jewelry and home decor that pays homage to the beauty of nature. Chris combines her academic background in ecology and forestry with her love of jewelry and design to create seasonal collection, using metal and genuine natural stones. Natural motifs like suns, moons, leaves, and animals are common and gemstones are selected to build seasonal color stories. "I am constantly in awe of patterns, shapes and colors in nature and I think it's important to remind people of the beauty that surrounds us and how important it is to take care of it." - Chris McKinleyRead their story
