About the Designer
Susan Hamilton Meier has been creating handmade fine jewelry in New York City for over 20 years. She is the founder and owner of SUNLIT Fine Jewelry.
Lit up by the golden treasures of ancient Egypt as a child, Susan studied art history at Dartmouth College, where she wrote her thesis on medieval Italian altarpieces.
Susan started her career at Sotheby's Jewelry, surrounded by the most extraordinary jewels in the world. A lifelong passion for jewelry was ignited, and with it the calling to make fine jewels with her own hands.
After graduate work at the School of Visual Arts, she studied granulation at Jewelry Arts and then discovered wax carving at the Fred de Vos workshop, where she has worked since.
Her studio practice has taken her to the pyramids of Egypt and Mexico, and the iconography of ancient sun symbols are drawn into her designs.
Susan sculpts and textures each piece by hand in her New York City studio alongside her jewel-loving pitbull, Tiger.
