Custom Jewelry Designs, Unique Handmade Jewelry, Gemstone Necklaces

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Semi-precious gemstones from all over the world. Pearls in many hues. Shells, mother of pearl, vintage glass from 1900 - 1950, sterling silver, and vermeil.

These are the ingredients in Diane's beautiful handcrafted necklaces, earrings, and bracelets: unique, elegant designs for the sophisticated woman. Her pins make a dramatic statement combining vintage pieces with crystals and tassels.

Before she turned to designing jewelry, Diane was immersed professionally in the art museum world for many years. Her wide knowledge of art history and special love of paintings fueled her interest in distinct color combinations and fascinating textural contrasts.

As Diane has said, "I love color, and I try to create harmonious and poetic combinations of different hues from the materials I gather from around the globe. My preference is for bold and dynamic designs that a woman can wear to 'make the outfit' as well as showcase her assured, elegant self."

Her talent as a jewelry designer was quickly recongized. Diane's necklaces and pins may be seen at Bijoux, a beautiful jewelry store in Lutherville, MD, just north of Baltimore. She sells her work primarily in fine art and craft galleries as well as museum stores, in addition to custom work for individuals. Look for Diane's work in Baltimore, Charleston, Savannah, Fort Lauderdale, and North Miami.
