T: Is for timeless elements.

It might be said that Jill Schwartz has design in her blood. She is the daughter of two designers, one a graphic designer the other an interior designer. With such creative parents, an appreciation of art was the cornerstones of her upbringing. Her fascination with jewelry was evident at an early age. She was forbidden to have pierced ears until the age of sixteen. So at three years old, she resorted to gluing beads to her earlobes. Like her jewelry, Schwartz's talents combine different elements. The jewelry, frames, journals, books, paperweights, and clocks which she designs, are a natural synthesis of her training as a graphic designer and an interior designer, and incorporates her love and knowledge of ancient and ethnic arts. She uses wonderfully balanced collage and assemblage.Jill Schwartz creates her line of Elements jewelry and paperweights in her Barrington, MA studio Elements' hand crafted Jewelry line is a collection rich with images, antique findings, and collage. Jill Schwartz designs a new line every season each with its own distinct personality. With earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and pins, Elements' has that unique piece of jewelry perfect for you. Paperweights are a perfect canvas for an Elements vignette, where Jill Schwartz can create new scenes with her signature findings, images, words, letters, and themes, housed in sturdy glass tops and pewter bases. Her eclectic collection of parts and her true artistic genius endow all her pieces with beauty and uniqueness.Jill has a love for ancient and ethnic arts. i just love her richly textured pieces and that is a F.A.C.T.
