Pilar Baker is contemporary metalsmith, designer and artist who embraces the concept that art is the ultimate form of self-expression. Pilar creates jewelry and sculpture with elements that focus primarily on the many cycles in life as well as the permanence and impermanence of the world around her.
 
Along with the physical act of manipulating metal, designing jewelry with obscure symbols is cathartic for Pilar while imparting a universal appeal of simple beauty for the wearer. Pieces are thought provoking but elegant. She believes there is unsurpassed beauty in that made by hand and infused with the passionate eye of an artist. That is apparent in marks left by her hammer, random but controlled, or a deliberately hand-sanded surface contrasting a highly polished edge. Employing traditional metalsmithing techniques, Pilar creates limited quantities of finely-crafted pieces using precious metals and gemstones in her studio in Katy, Texas.

Pilar received a B.F.A. in Jewelry and Metalsmithing at the University of Houston after previously earning a degree in Interior Design. She is an active member of the Houston Metal Arts Guild.
