Betty Cooke
She was born in 1924. Cooke helped to pioneer the mid-century modernist studio jewelry movement. In a style distinctly her own, Cooke’s jewelry features simple geometric forms in materials such as gold and silver tubing, quartz, opal, and onyx. Her clean, architectural designs are pared down to their most essential forms, recalling modernist works by Bauhaus artists who sought to reimagine the material world through their art in 1920s Germany. Cooke discovered her love of jewelry design while studying at the Maryland Institute College of Art, where she also taught for 22 years. In 1965, she and her husband Bill Steinmetz opened The Store Ltd at the Village of the Cross Keys. Still in business and operating under the guiding principle “sell only great design,” The Store Ltd sells Cooke’s jewelry, as well as a wide variety of contemporary home décor, furnishings, and apparel. Cooke’s prolific career also includes designing clothes for Geoffrey Beene’s New York and Milan fashion shows, decorating the interiors of Fair Lanes bowling alleys, and creating store fronts for the Rouse Company. She won the prestigious De Beers Diamond Today Award twice, and her work has been collected by major institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art, the Walker Art Center, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The Walters Art Museum’s forthcoming exhibition. The Circle and the Line will be the first major museum retrospective of Cooke’s work.
