CHOOSE YOUR
STONE
CHOOSE YOUR
SETTING
The FosterMerritt jewelry line is designed to mix and
match. You have the unique opportunity to pick the
settings and stones that match your taste and market.
Once your stones are chosen, you can have them set in
any of our 3 signature settings. Choose a small or large
stone setting with ring sizes from 6 to 10.
MUSE:
This setting is named after the
“Muse” of FosterMerritt. The design is a homage to
a vintage ring that inspired Kim and Jason to come
together and create a line of beautiful handcrafted
jewelry.
AGNES:
This setting is named after Kim Merritt’s
grandmother “Agnes”. A mover and shaker,
she belonged to women’s clubs that served
the people in her community. Agnes also had a
visual and spiritual impact on Kim. Images of her
grandmother’s home and decor are a constant
inspiration.
MARY:
This setting is named after Jason Foster’s grandmother
“Mary”. She was an avid rock hound who amassed a
staggering collection of stones and minerals during her
lifetime. Continuing her legacy, Jason has developed a
passion for creating works of art out of the natural beauty
of stones and minerals that Earth creates.
