6 Pence Artist Spotlight: Locally Made Jewelry

Lisa Schmidt of Lisa's Local Color

At 6Pence, as the holidays approach, we are

excited to feature the very popular jewelry made by

Lisa Schmidt! Lisa has been creating both vintage

and contemporary jewelry for about 12 years. Most

of her pieces are one of a kind, and Lisa says that

when a color or material idea strikes...she has to

drop everything and make it! Seasons are

sometimes reflected in a piece, and the nature around her yard and woods are often

a creativity factor. Lisa puts her heart and soul into her jewelry, and creates what she

likes, and hopes you like it too!

Jessica Louise Lynn of Adornments byJessica Louise Lynn

Jessica's jewelry is all handmade using traditional

metalsmithing techniques, and her designs range from

whimsical and fun to more abstract artistic pieces. Jessica

tends to create pieces that have a rugged, rustic, earthy

quality, but she is also drawn to high fashion, big city

scenes and upscale nightlife. Instead of fighting these two

natural and equally influential instincts, she embraces both.

Jessica's jewelry is practical yet attractive, and is suitable for everyday wear, from

backyard campfires to the martini club, or the office to the tapas restaurant.

...And don't forget, we have LorenzoCristaudo's lampworked glass ornamentsagain this year to add a touch of crystallinebeauty to your holiday!
