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. |

Crystal Eggleston
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. |
