Llyn strong
American jewelry designer Llyn Strong works with rusted iron, white pearls, lapis lazuli, morganite and many more distinctive materials in Greenville, South Carolina, to create mostly one-of-a-kind necklaces, earrings, rings and other accessories that are as much sculptural works of art as they are jewelry.
Strong studied jewelry design at Western Carolina University and created her first piece in 1972. She opened the doors of Llyn Strong Fine Art Jewelry in 1986 and firmly established herself as an important member of the community in downtown Greenville for more than three decades. Then, in 2021, she moved to a smaller space on Washington Street in midtown.
The move especially marked an important transition in Strong’s business perspective. Rather than endeavoring to evolve into a flashy jewelry empire, Strong recognizes that her clientele is specific — she sits with her customers and discusses their styles and needs — and that the firm’s unique, handcrafted melds of precious gemstones and unconventional materials don’t appeal to every kind of wearer. Her work is mostly custom, and whether it’s a beaded multicolored sapphire necklace or a mint-green tourmaline ring, the work of Llyn Strong Fine Art Jewelry is in a class of its own.
Strong is backed by a tight-knit, incredibly talented team — three-quarters of her staff are designers themselves with their own custom lines. A collection that followed their transition in 2021 served to commemorate the change — it’s butterfly-themed and includes 18-karat yellow and white gold butterfly dangle earrings and a bracelet aptly called the “Strong Transformation” Butterfly cuff.
Strong's daughter, Sydney, took up the family business and has long worked alongside her mother. Sydney excelled in athletics and helped her mom design when she wasn’t playing soccer — eventually, she grew passionate about design and she completed a graduate degree in the gemologist program at the Gemological Institute of America.
Always an artist first and a businesswoman second, Strong is happy in the new environment, still putting customers first. To her, jewelry is an artistic expression that says who you are, and to that point, her work speaks volumes.

- Geoffrey Good Brilliant White Diamond Oxidized Silver Hex Eternity BandBy Geoffrey GoodLocated in Dallas, TXHex Eternity Band intricately handcrafted by renowned jewelry designer Geoffrey Good in matte finished oxidized sterling silver featuring eight 3mm round brilliant-cut white diamonds bezel-set in curved hexagonal elements. Size 5.75. About the Maker - Geoffrey Good discovered his passion for jewelry in college after designing a pair of earrings for his girlfriend out of glass-scrap materials. After earning a degree in jewelry design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, Geoffrey apprenticed with master jeweler Klaus Wisskirchen, assisting in the creation of jewelry for prestigious firms, including Cartier© and Christie’s©. Opening his studio at the turn of the millennium, Geoffrey began implementing exotic woods and uncommon, natural gemstones into his collections. Influenced by his personal travel, his pieces took on the form of African, European, and Far-Eastern decorative arts and style. "I like to see evidence that things have come from the earth," says Geoffrey, a native Virginian. "There’s a fine line between rough and refined, and I’m always trying to straddle that line." Profiled in The New York Times and working with the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Geoffrey has created pieces for both the Grammy and Academy Awards, fashion designers Alexander Wang and Vena Cava...Category
