Florence Koehler

She was the traveling companion of Emily Crane Chadbourne and the pair settled in London where Koehler retained a studio in Kensington.

There she was acquainted with Alice Stopford Green, Arthur Bowen Davies, Augustus John, Lady Ottoline Morrell, Henry James, and Roger Quilter.

Collections of her jewelry and paintings were donated to the Rhode Island School of Design and Everson Museum of Art, respectively.

[3] A collection of her papers and correspondence is held by the Arthur and Elizabeth Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America at Harvard.

For her jewelry, Koehler tailored her designs and choice of gemstones to her clients, favoring cabochons over faceted stones.

[10] Art critic Roger Fry praised her work, writing in The Burlington Magazine in 1910 that "[i]t is in the imaginative and definitely poetic quality that Mrs. Koehler's jewellery marks such an important moment in the modern revival of craftsmanship.
