J & J Brown Garnet Studio
Garnet Studio is owned and operated by Joe and Judy Brown.  Joe is a retired school teacher that has been cutting stones for over 30 years.  Judy cuts cabochons and designs and sets the stones in 14K gold and silver jewelry.  When Joe retired two years ago they moved up to their family homestead in North River where they built a studio attached to their home overlooking Gore Mountain.  Their specialty is Adirondack Garnet but the store offers a large variety of gems from all over the world.  From Sapphires to Tourmaline, Moonstone to tiger-eye, there is much to look at.  They also offer custom designed jewelry with their customer in mind.
Annick Designs
creates fine artisan jewelry in a variety of collections utilizing different materials and application.  Her "Vintage" and "Swarovski Crystal Collection" present Victorian and Renaissance inspired jewelry created with antique filigrees and discontinued Swarovski crystals.  She also specializes in unique and rare gem stones that can be seen in her "Precious" and "Wire Work" collections.  These pieces of wearable art are created with labor intensive wire wrapping using various gauges of sterling silver wire which are then oxidized for a dramatic, antique finish.

Tamarack Studio
Tamarack Jewelry is a collection of gemstones set by silversmith Regina Eldridge, portraying historic styles ranging from early Celtic, through Victorian, Edwardian, Art Nouveau, and Art Deco periods.  Construction techniques include hand fabrication, die-struck filigrees, lost-wax casting and free-form jewelry sculpture from precious metal clay.  Many pieces incorporate all of these techniques with unusual gemstone cuts to create unique, one-of-a-kind necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings and brooches.  The shop in Warrensburg, NY ("at the bandstand") offers hundreds of items to choose from in price points from $20 to $1500.

Raw metals such as nickel, copper, and brass make up the majority of my jewelry portfolio. I enjoy the natural qualities of these materials and the way in which they react to the heat of a torch. Most of my metal pieces incorporate a semi-precious stone of some kind. I feel that the combination of the natural metals and semi-precious stones give an earthy feel and make each piece truly unique. The cuff pictured is made from copper with an onyx stone. The red patina you see in the copper is natural and is created from the heat of the torch.

I've been creating unique lampworked glass jewelry from my Hudson Valley studio since 2000.  Lampwork is a process developed centuries ago in Italy for forming molten glass into beads and sculptural shapes.  I make each piece one at a time, using colorful rods of glass melted in a torch flame, shaped, decorated and then fired in a kiln to strengthen the glass.  What appears very delicate is in fact quite durable.  I am working on new ideas for functional glass art.  My earrings and other jewelry feature my glass work and sterling silver.
