Gwendolyn Campion-black
I have been a maker my whole life. From fairy houses as a child to metalworking and poetry as a teen to photography and illustration as an adult, art has always been the most important part of my life. I started working on jewelry as a medium at 16 and have returned to it often throughout the years, creating one of a kind jewelry out of found objects and recycled materials. In 2023 I decided to pursue my creative vision more seriously, developing my skills further to work with precious metals and stones and hone new techniques. All jewelry is handmade to order in my home studio in North Florida.
MY PHILOSOPHY
Buying from an artist is an investment in the creative process. All of my jewelry is handmade, which means each piece takes time and care. I take the time to create the most beautiful piece possible. I believe that art should be accessible for everyone, so I maintain two jewelry lines. One line of affordable costume pieces using lower cost, recycled and found items. Due to this sustainable practice, most of these pieces are unique or one of a kind and can’t always be replicated. They are made with a mix of materials from copper, to clay to silver to stone and may require special care as not all materials will be water resistant or tarnish free.
My precious metal line is a work in progress and contains pieces in sterling silver, brass and gold. Most pieces will be made for sale in sterling silver and brass, and can be made in fine silver, gold or other metals upon request. These pieces are meant to be special, timeless and able to stand up to daily wear. It contains a mix of understated and statement jewelry made with my artistic fingerprint.
