About us



Based in Santa Cruz, CA, Wildthorne is an independent art studio nestled in an old-growth redwood forest by the Pacific Ocean. Founded by creative designer Kim N. Chau, Wildthorne is unconventional as there are traces of Kim’s cross-cultural heritage, perspective, and inspiration within each object she composes. A unique meld of myth, nature, eastern thought, and symbolic resonance in old processes are combined in Kim’s designs. 

Wildthorne uses traditional techniques to create the highest quality artisan mineral watercolours and jewelry crafted with care and mindful attention to detail.

Eco-friendly art supplies, natural jewelry that encompasses the duality of rough textures with refined facets, and treasured artifacts that are ethical, and sustainable are offered in authentic beauty to add tranquility to your life and personal creative space.
