Johnnie Gins & Pamela Hill-Byrne

Jewelry

 

Johnnie Gins works in silver, gold and copper to create wearable art from jewelry to metal purses, mezzuzahs and playful tableware. She collaborates with glassmakers and other artisans to add more color, depth and texture to her pieces. Her objective is to capture small shifts in the landscape that occur on a daily basis.

Pamela Hill-Byrne works in sterling silver and dichroic glass. Her design sense is contemporary, featuring clean, angular, geometric designs with gem stones and pearls as accents.  The glass “stones” she uses in her work are each hand-formed by fitting together multiple pieces of glass coated with metal oxides, and then fusing them in a kiln.
