2021 Jewelry Artists

Decatur, Georgia

I create one of a kind sculptural jewelry using various metals and found objects. specializing in Mokume Gani (wood grained metal) using sterling, copper and 18 and 14k gold.

Dexter, Michigan

I work primarily in 14K gold, but also with 18K, 22K and platinum. My work is a mixture of fabrication, various casting and metal techniques (i.e. lost wax, reticulation) and lapidary. I do all of my own stone cutting for the inlay pieces and some of the free form cabochon cuts. The cutting I do with unusual gemstones utilizes the natural characteristics/textures and focuses on the unique features of the stone.

Sarasota, Florida

 I begin my work by growing or collecting seeds, pods or buds, then I take impressions of these. I use portions of these impressions or alter them, cast them individually, then use them as repeated elements by soldering them to various forged elements. I then use a wide variety of metalsmithing techniques to create the final design in silver and gold with stones vitreous enamel and pearls.

Irving, Texas

My joy of creating jewelry is ever ongoing. There is no end to my imagination.

Alexandria, Virginia

Unique structures and natural objects inspire me to create jewelry where organic components are set within a contemporary frame.
I hand-form every piece of polymer clay jewelry with no use of commercial molds. I use several techniques including caning, engraving, weaving, layering, and many others for which I don?t have names.

Sarasota, Florida

All of my pieces have gemstones…vibrant colors as well as natural surface stones. At the end of the day, seeing a client walk away with excitement in their eyes and a smile on their face because of a piece of jewelry I have created by hand is why I love what I do!

Lewis Center, Ohio

San Bornton, New Hampshire

As a self taught metalsmith, I enjoy exploring mixed metals, surface treatments, and various forming techniques. Motivation stems from process and material. Influences are drawn form all of the applied arts, however, clean lines and simple forms characterize all of my work. Recent pieces combine silver and 22k gold, offering subtle contrasts of color, surface, and form.

Sarasota, Florida

All designs shown are created by this husband and wife team. They met in college in 1976, with BFA from Memphis College of Art and AA from Fleming College in Florence Italy. They express their fascination with light, energy, and powerful form by using nature’s finest elements to produce a collection of jewelry that sings with excitement.

Prospect Heights, Illinois

Our work features finely handcrafted, unique pieces that are created with care and purpose. Mary uses metalsmithing fabrication processes such as hollow/fold-forming, piercing, soldering, hammering, texturing, polishing and stone setting for each jewelry, small scale sculpture and vessel creation. Spencer creates images on individually hand-picked lake stones using hand cut stencils and a sand blasting process.
