Beauty in Metal - Ornella Iannuzzi Jewelry
Sometimes it's love at first sight.
Jewelry created by Ornella Iannuzzi
is contemporary and dramatic.
And eye catching.
All the qualities that I love
to see in jewelry.
Over the years, her collections have drawn
inspiration from nature, such as
forest motifs and the ocean
and they continue to do so.
Her strong design skills allow for
a great deal of innovation and exploration.
She uses all kinds of
metals and gems in her work -
from gold and silver, to copper and bronze;
from pearls, quartz and pyrite, to diamonds and opals.
Her designs range from the
quasi-primordial to the
ultra elegant.
The pieces are expressive, creative
and at times, surprising.
It's all beautiful.

Unusual settings are her forte
and each suits the featured gem.
This hand-carved opal includes a
tiny quartz crystal on the corner,
and seems to capture
all the colors of the rainbow.
