Tarah Prater Perini has always had a love for jewelry. She has been making jewelry ever since she was a little girl. Her first creation was made of colored macaroni, a huge hit with her parents and family. No worries, she has moved away from using food for her jewelry. "There are just so many great stones and pendants out there, you can't help but want to use them."

In 1995, Tarah attended Middle Tennessee State University to pursue a career in TV Production. While minoring in art she found jewelry design, which taught her how to work with metals and stones. Her love for jewelry increased and she began focusing more on jewelry.

In November of 2000 she moved to Seattle, Washington and decided to pursue her jewelry design career. "It was something I always wanted to do. I was always buying jewelry but knew I could make it myself. It made perfect sense to me." Once she started making her own jewelry and people started buying it, Tarah Prater Designs was born.

Tarah works with sterling, vintage and semi-precious stones. Butterflies are her favorite, an as such, she has made it one of her signature items. She creates unique designs that are intended for confident woman who love to be stylish and stand out.
