Simple and elegant, daring and bold - handcrafted jewelry is a personality, a thought, a feeling expressed in precious metals and gems. The creation and collection of jewelry, is about intimacy. Something personal is expressed in the wearing of handmade jewelry.

The timeless beauty of a world class gemstone is an invitation to create an elegant setting that seeks simplicity over complexity.
Maggie Joynt is a recent transplant to the mountains of Western North Carolina. Her work is modern, organic jewelry in sterling silver, mixed metals and gemstones.
My handmade jewelry is inspired by some of the oldest designs known to humankind: Square, Circle, Triangle, Spiral and Equidistant Cross. My understanding of these designs was forever changed by the work of a cultural anthropologist who traced these five Universal Symbols and their meanings from the beginning of human culture.
