Handcrafted Jewelry
Elizabeth Garvin works primarily with semiprecious gemstones and silver, often adding contrast with oxidation or 22 karat gold vermeil. Applying various techniques of patterning and finishing, each piece is playfully graphic, yet sensibly made to be surprisingly affordable. Garvin's jewelry is exhibited internationally in many galleries and museum stores as an example of contemporary design in wearable art. Each piece of jewelry is handmade in her New York studio.

Elizabeth Garvin graduated with honors from New York University in 1986, earning a bachelor of Arts degree, with further studies at Parsons School of Design and Massachusetts College of Art. Her goal as a designer has been to create forms with classic elegance and enduring quality, while integrating various techniques, and at times parting with tradition as a part of her overall design concept. Influenced by architecture, geometry and industrial design, Garvin creates mechanically ingenious pieces. Her approach to designing form, engineering movement and developing techniques often draws as much from architecture and industrial design as from the traditional craft of jewelry making.
