Patti Page is a contradiction. She is a minimalist who has chosen to work in a medium of adornment. Patti’s uncomplicated style of creating hand cut stones and using clean bezel settings lets her highlight the beautiful patterns and colors of the natural stones she chooses. Simplicity of design meets the complexity of nature in her bold scale pieces. Patti received a BFA in metals at Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 1984 and at the same time earned a certificate from Bowman Technical School in Lancaster, PA for Jewelry Repair and Stone setting. Patti has continued her education with courses at the Gemological Institute of America with Diamond Grading, Pearls, and Sales 1986-2007. Most recently Patti has been studying lapidary (2016-present) and continues to integrate this process into her fine jewelry.
