Lapidary & Silversmith Artist at The Steampunk Buddha

Erik Epp is the master lapidary and silversmith behind many of the striking metal and stone elements you see in The Steampunk Buddha collection. With a deep respect for craftsmanship and a keen eye for detail, Erik transforms raw materials into wearable art that perfectly complements Rebecca’s vision.

Working with precious metals and hand-cut stones, Erik brings a refined balance of technical skill and creative flair. Every bezel, every silver setting, every polished gem is shaped with patience and precision—because quality matters.

Erik’s work adds depth and dimension to the jewelry, combining the rugged charm of steampunk with an artisan’s dedication to fine detail. Together, Rebecca and they create pieces that are both bold and intricate, rough yet elegant.

If you appreciate jewelry where the metalwork and stones tell their own story—carefully crafted by hand and made to last—Erik’s artistry is a big part of what makes The Steampunk Buddha special.
