Custom jewelry featuring natural stones from across the world

Jenny Brown, jewelry designer

Texture, color, and balance are all elements of my mostly one-of-a-kind designs.  Using natural stones, I let their unique patterns and shapes determine the way each piece evolves.  Mixing vintage and modern, and occasionally a bit of whimsy, I love the creative process of hand making a pile of metals and stones into something beautiful and wearable.   Experience, mentoring, workshops and small classes have been my education but I've always had a creative bent.  Jewelry making is by far my favorite outlet for creative expression and by keeping it small and more one of a kind, I am constantly challenged to stretch my skills and not be bored by repetition.

Jewelry can reflect your mood, as well as complimenting your outfit.  Be adventurous and embellish your many moods.

I hope you enjoy my portfolio of unique pieces of jewelry I have designed and made.  I often incorporate  vintage elements I've found.   I welcome requests for custom pieces or to redesign an old piece that has become boring or outdated to wear.
