About Harvest the Light

At the heart of Rockland, Maine, nestled within a transformed industrial space, lies Harvest the Light, a sanctuary where metal meets mythology under the meticulous hands of Seth Gideon Fainkujen. A master jeweler, sculptor, and storyteller, Seth's creations transcend mere adornment—they are wearable narratives, each piece a chapter in a larger tale.

From Canvas to Carving

Raised in a family that revered the arts, Seth's journey and passion for fine art blossomed through the love and admiration of his older brother. After attending Belfast Area High School, he pursued formal education at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), he apprenticed and worked his way through the industry where he honed his skills in jewelry making. His early work in Phoenix earned him the title of "Best Jeweler" for three consecutive years by the Phoenix New Times and top 100 creatives, a testament to his exceptional talent and dedication.

Crafting Stories in Metal

Seth's designs are deeply inspired by the natural and metaphysical world. He absorbs the people and places he holds dear. “A collaboration with Mother Nature” rich in folklore, often drawing from the idea of ancient myths and relics. Each piece is handcrafted from design concept to completion in his Rockland studio, ensuring a personal touch and unparalleled quality. His creations range from the ethereal "Skygazer Ring," featuring Sleeping Beauty Turquoise and diamond accents, to the bold elegance of the "Who By fire Ring,” crafted from Mexican fire Opal handmade with gold and champagne diamond details.

A Beacon of Community and Craftsmanship

Beyond his artistry, Seth is committed to ethical sourcing and sustainability, constantly striving to use conflict-free and responsibly sourced materials. His studio-gallery at 26 Rankin Street is more than a retail space—it's a community hub where creativity and connection flourish. From June to October, Seth hosts monthly events, inviting the public to experience his latest collections and engage with the local arts scene .

A Legacy in the Making
