Jaclyn Sanipass

I am a Maine native, and although I've traveled the world I am always happy to return home. I am a published author, jeweler, and mother.

Walking the ocean's edge on the coast of Maine over the years has given me opportunity to comb the beaches and collect natural, ocean-tumbled sea glass. These unique pieces have become focal points for my jewelry. Working with silver, gold, and rose gold, I love how the wire feels as it bends and flows easily around precious sea glass or my other favorite--Maine tourmaline.

I am a trail runner and martial arts instructor, so the need for small sturdy earrings that accommodate my lifestyle are necessary. I began making stud earrings and tested them in all of the elements. From swimming in the oceans and rivers, to running up my favorite mountains, I wore them day in and day out to find the right materials and wrapping techniques. I now create beautiful stud earrings with an elegant look and feel for any occasion, and feel secure knowing these stud earrings have taken the test of the natural elements.
