Distinctive Hand-Crafted Jewelry

Welcome to Studio 44 Jewelry. The pieces you see here are all designed and hand-crafted by Lorraine Hornby - a Laguna Beach, California artist and Certified Gemologist. The work is bold, contemporary, and varied. Visit the Jewelry pages to see more, and come visit me at the upcoming 2009 Sawdust Art Festival (see "Upcoming Exhibition" below).

Artist's Statement

I most enjoy the process of designing a new piece: thinking about color, balance, texture, and form. I have spent many hours searching gem shows to find distinctive gemstones to include in my work. Each piece that I make is the culmination not only of this searching, but of time spent imagining many variations leading to the final design, and of the actual creation of the work.
