Since Gold was out of her reach, she used brass with silver to cut costs. She then added copper and semi-precious stones for interest. Her love of natural textures and shapes formed the basis for Jackie's designs. The result was extraordinary and the desire for her work grew rapidly allowing her to pursue her craft full time.
The goal of Gardella Jewelry is to use natural, easy-flowing designs along with expert metalsmithing to create unique and affordable jewelry. We strive for a quality product that will ensure the customer a piece that is collectable and suitable for everyday wear.
Our metals are sterling silver, bronze, and copper cut and etched into shapes that are soldered together. Wire and stones embellish and add color and depth. A patina brings out the textures, and a high polish on the raised areas creates contrast.
Each piece is done with care by hand. Our passion is our work and we take great care in ensuring quality time and time again. Our customers have returned for close to twenty years to collect Gardella's jewelry. This is a testament to our longevity and high standards.
