(Formally known as Jewelry by Gina)
For the last 27 years I've had a studio in beautiful downtown Northampton, Ma. My favorite commissions are from people with a particular person and occasion in mind, and they've come up with a design concept which we then work on together to bring to fruition. For example: tiny gavel earrings for a newly appointed judge, mini colander earrings for a pasta restau

rant owner, a small jug-like vessel a ten year old wears around his neck with his father's ashes inside, a pearl found in an oyster appetizer, elements in a dream, a stone found on a walk on the beach…those personal moments when life inspires art. Many have told me that a piece of my jewelry is the only thing that they wear all the time, and this to me is the highest compliment! I work on one piece at a time and there is no template I follow exactly for each piece, so each is truly hand wrought and unique. I have a lapidary and can cut and polish stones, and have many on hand. I mostly work in argentium silver, which has a slightly higher fine silver content than sterling silver. It costs me slightly more, but is well worth it because it is tarnish resistant. I also work in copper, brass, platinum and my favorite, gold. My jewelry is sold in dozens of stores in Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Vermont, and Canada. Let's talk and get creative!
