Judie Gumm Jewelery
Judie Gumm
is a noted jewelry designer from interior Alaska where she has been
designing and manufacturing jewelry since 1970. She is recognized for her
Alaskan nature designs, combining sterling silver and semiprecious stones in
designs which feature the birds, fruits, berries and animals of Alaska and
the Pacific Northwest. We are pleased to offer a selection of her jewelry.
"I draw inspiration from
Nature's own wealth of imagery. I am particularly drawn to capture animals
and plants that have a whimsical theme or romantic symbolism. This approach
often challenges me to find that perfect bead or stone to complement the
design in a meaningful way. As a craft, jewelry should be well made,
durable, and above all else wearable. But it also can be an art form that
enchants the wearer with beauty."
Judie Gumm
Born in upstate New York, Judie Gumm settled in
Alaska in 1972. Largely self- taught, she has been designing jewelry for more
than 30 years and works almost exclusively with precious metals in the lost
wax technique. Prior to 1984, Judie worked individually on one-of-a-kind and
limited edition designs. Since that time she has worked closely with a small
staff of skilled artisans who assist her in the production of her work. In
1990 her husband, Dick Gumm, joined her. Their goal is to create jewelry
hand-crafted for a lifetime of enjoyment at an affordable price.
