Lisa Hawthorne Named as Finalist in 2011 Niche Jewelry Award

Winner of five Niche Awards over the last 10 years, Lisa Hawthorne is a 2011 Niche Finalist and a competitor for the first place award this coming year!

Hawthorne has earned several first place awards in the "Silver and Stones," "Metal Enameled," and "Gold and Stones," Niche categories over the last decade.  Hawthorne uses an imaginative mix of sterling silver, 18k and 22k gold, gemstones and cloisonné enamel in her unique and whimsical wearable art pieces.  Available at the Hawthorne Gallery in Big Sur, California and Port Orford, Oregon, Hawthorne's work continues to evolve as she explores new themes and symbolism with each new work.

"With the use of enamels I feel such freedom of expression, through imagery, symbols, and the vibrancy of color. I enjoy creating stories in many of my pieces, and making jewelry that is fun to wear," Hawthorne reflects.
