About Sarah Killen

The artistic mission of Saint Claude was to imbue everyday adornments with significance and history, pushing the wearer to see more than what meets the eye in ordinary objects. We use the ancient lost-wax technique, cire-perdue, to sculpt and mold our designs from wax before casting them in precious and semi precious metals. The pieces themselves represent the duality of beauty and darkness so often found in our beloved city. Sarah Killen was the artist and designer behind Saint Claude, and most recently entering a new evolution under her name, Sarah Killen. Saint Claude was derived from a street in the Bywater neighborhood where her first studio was located. It has served her well for the last 18 years but all good things are wild and free. “When I moved to New Orleans 21 years ago, I was determined to be a welder and make furniture because I love working with my hands, but the universe had something different in-store. In a Post-Katrina world, I was still searching for my place. After several different attempts, and not necessarily on purpose, Saint Claude was the natural marriage of all those tangible, artistic desires.”Read their story
