Beth Hall has been designing and creating jewelry as a passionate hobby for the past 30 years.  She was inspired as a child by the ethnic adornment found in her grandfather’s National Geographic magazines and later her love for ancient artifacts. Beth’s jewelry designs reflect archaeological, spiritual, and cultural motifs reminiscent of tribal ornamentation with a cultivated contemporary edge. She enjoys incorporating a variety of natural elements into her metalwork including dinosaur bone, hand-made paper, horsehair, and stone.  Beth’s studies in jewelry fabrication include classes from the prestigious Revere Academy in San Francisco and various arts centers throughout the country.  A selection of her work in chain mail can be viewed in Art Jewelry Magazine.  More at: www.ninestones.com/adderstone.
