This just might be the most enchanting week of Kindred Lubeck’s life.

The Artifex Fine jeweler, who co-designed Taylor Swift’s stunning engagement ring with Travis Kelce, addressed the major moment in an Instagram video Friday, thanking her old and new fans for their well wishes and support.

“Hello! My name is Kindred Lubeck. I’m 30 years old. I started making jewelry in the summer of 2019. I was 25.” Lubeck began.

“I believe that if someone says you can’t do something, you should prove them 110 percent wrong. I think that if one door closes, you should kick the next one down. I think that if you have a dream, you should never, ever quit,” she continued.

Lubeck ended her video message with a sweet shoutout to the many Swifties now following her every move, quoting a lyric from the pop icon’s “Speak Now” track “Enchanted.”

“To those of you who’ve been with me since day one, thank you so much. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so, so much. And to those of you who are new, I’m enchanted to meet you.”

Page Six Style was the first to confirm that Lubeck had created Swift’s spectacular sparkler with an assist from Kelce.

The 14-time Grammy winner’s gorgeous ring is set with an old mine brilliant-cut diamond, an antique stone characterized by its cushion-like shape and 58 facets (of note: five plus eight equals 13, famously Swift’s favorite number). Since these diamonds date back to the time before modern gem-cutting technology existed, no two are alike.

Lubeck specialized in hand-engraved pieces, and the yellow gold band of Swift’s ring features intricate detail work; some fans swear they spy at least one “T” carved into it, which would certainly be in line with the superstar’s well-documented love of initial jewelry.

While the size of Swift’s rock hasn’t been confirmed, a number of diamond experts tell us the ring could be worth as much as $1 million, as the center stone appears to be somewhere between 7 and 10 carats.

Per the Artifex Fine website — where every single piece is now sold out — Lubeck “was once told that she would never be a jewelry designer. That’s when she decided to be a jewelry designer.”

The daughter of a Florida goldsmith, Lubeck told Voyage Jacksonville in 2024 that she graduated with a degree in psychology from Florida State University and worked at a law firm for several months before pivoting to jewelry design.

After learning the trade from her father during the COVID-19 pandemic, Lubeck moved to NYC in 2024 to open Artifex Fine, sharing, “It’s my engraved pieces that put me on the digital map.”

“I think it’s important to mention that I was able to do this without any financial help in the form of loans, donations, or gifts,” she added. “I say this because it’s hard work that allowed me to get here. Hard work and dedication makes anything possible.”
