Our Story
There is a quiet magic in the moments we choose to make sacred.
At The Art of Ceremony, we believe beauty and presence are powerful medicine—that even the smallest rituals can transform how we move through the world.
Founded by Kim Blake and guided in partnership with Kevin Barry’s quiet wisdom and devotion to ritual, The Art of Ceremony weaves together handcrafted jewelry, soulful guided meditations, and ceremonial experiences designed to bring stillness, beauty, and intention into everyday life—and to touch the journeys of guests around the world with moments of meaning and remembrance.
Discover the Heart & Soul of The Art of Ceremony
From the glint of a gemstone against the skin to the hush of a meditation flowing through a quiet room, The Art of Ceremony celebrates moments of meaningful connection.
Every piece—whether worn, held, or heard—is crafted to awaken a sense of wonder and remind us that even the smallest details hold the power to shift how we feel and move through the world.
What Makes The Art of Ceremony Unique
Each piece of jewelry we create is a small altar of intention.
A gathering of stone and story, designed to rest close to the body
and whisper you back to what matters.
From there, our circle widens—
to crystals that transform rooms into sanctuaries,
and to experiences that turn an ordinary moment into a ceremony.
This is The Art of Ceremony:
something to wear,
something to place,
something to practice.
Beauty, presence, and transformation—woven into every offering.
Meet Kim Blake – The Visionary Behind The Art of Ceremony
Jewelry is more than adornment. A voice is more than sound. Both are gateways into presence, beauty, and the quiet sacredness woven into everyday life.
At the heart of The Art of Ceremony is Kim Blake, an artist whose devotion to gemstones, storytelling, and healing has shaped a world where ritual becomes tangible.
Raised in a family of fiber artists, Kim grew up amidst the gentle rhythm of her mother’s loom, where each thread carried intention and story. From this legacy, she learned that objects—and moments—can hold meaning far beyond their physical form. That spirit breathes through every piece she creates, whether it rests against the skin or whispers into the soul.
Her handcrafted jewelry is conceived as small altars of intention, each stone chosen for its unique vibration and quiet wisdom.
Her path into voice and ritual began close to home, crafting meditations to soothe her son’s anxious heart. Today, her spoken offerings have blossomed into transformative experiences designed for luxury hospitality settings, guiding guests into stillness and deeper connection.
For Kim, The Art of Ceremony is more than a brand—it’s a belief that beauty and presence are powerful medicine, and that even the smallest rituals can change how we move through the world. She invites you to join her in a journey where every stone, every breath, and every whisper becomes a ceremony.
Meet Kevin Barry – Keeper of Ritual and Quiet Wisdom
At the heart of The Art of Ceremony stands not only Kim, but also Kevin Barry—a soul whose quiet presence shapes the unseen architecture of ritual, blessing, and grounded devotion woven through the brand.
Kevin’s journey into sacred space began not in studios or workshops, but in the silent places between breath: sunrise prayers beneath desert skies, moments of stillness by flowing water, the timeless hush of the land itself. His life has been guided by a deep respect for what is unseen—energy, intention, spirit—and a gentle commitment to honoring each threshold we cross.
Where Kim weaves beauty into stones and words, Kevin brings the gift of presence. His voice carries the warmth of prayer and the steadiness of ritual. Whether opening a space with spoken blessings, offering quiet grounding before a ceremony, or guiding guests into reflection, he serves as a compass pointing toward the sacred.
Together, Kim and Kevin are partners in art and life. Their shared vision births experiences where ceremony becomes tangible, where words and silence hold equal power, and where each offering becomes a living bridge between spirit and the everyday.
As The Art of Ceremony expands into deeper realms of ritual—live healing soundscapes, ceremonies before and after touch, blessings for sacred spaces—it is Kevin’s grounded spirit and quiet wisdom that infuse each moment with authenticity and soul.
He is, in every way, The Art of Ceremony’s true north.
