New York, NY
bachelor of Arts degree, with further studies at Parsons School of Design and
Massachusetts College of Art. Jewelry by Elizabeth Garvin is exhibited internationally in
many galleries and museum stores as well as home furnishing and design focus
boutiques as an example of contemporary design in wearable art.
Her goal as a designer has been to create forms with classic elegance and enduring
quality, while intergrating various techniques and at times parting with tradition as a part of
her overall design concept. Each piece of jewelry is handmade in her New York studio
from sterling silver. Applying various techniques of patterning and finishing, each piece is
playfully graphic, yet sensibly made to be surprisingly affordable. 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. The
result is an approach to design that is at once timely and timeless.
