About
Welcome to Griffin Jewelry! I'm Julia, the heart and soul behind these hand forged creations.
My journey in the world of jewelry began back in the early 1990s when I started crafting beaded bracelets and necklaces. It was during this time that I attended my first silversmith class, igniting a lifelong passion for jewelry making. However, my professional path led me into the corporate world for many years.
In 2021, I made a life-changing decision to leave my corporate career behind and fully embrace my true calling – crafting jewelry. I am deeply committed to hand forging high-quality sterling silver and gold pieces, and I also cherish the art of beading. My designs are characterized by their simplicity and feature stunning gemstones that transcend time and trends.
My creative inspiration is drawn from the diverse cultures and landscapes I've encountered during my extensive travels across Europe, India, Latin America, and the western USA. Each journey has left an indelible mark on my artistic vision.
What sets Griffin Jewelry apart is the essence of handcraftsmanship. Every piece I create is a unique work of art, lovingly made by hand, making each one imperfectly perfect. I take pride in crafting genderless jewelry that carries with it a sense of authenticity and purpose. My hope is that every wearer is touched in a profoundly positive way by these creations.
Thank you for joining me on this creative journey. Your presence here is greatly appreciated, and I look forward to sharing the beauty and uniqueness of Griffin Jewelry with you.
