Fredricka is the daughter of Robert Kulicke, who was a master of granulation and Byzantine enameling. She was his first apprentice, as a child around 1960. Kulicke opened his studio officially in 1974 in New York City, to educate new jewelers on these ancient craftsmanship skills; today the studio is known as Jewelry Arts Inc. Fredricka continues to teach metalsmithing classes.
