Ann Allen

 

Ann Allen Jewelry is a collaboration of jewelry designers Ann Allen and Mary Winstead. Ann Allen is a gold and silversmith with a B.F.A. from Brooklyn College, Brooklyn, New York and a Masters in Metalsmithing from SUNY New Paltz at New Paltz, New York.

Mary Winstead, silversmith, holds her B.A. from Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Her Masters degree and Doctorate degree in Urban Studies are from Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana.

Both artists worked in the field of social work before making the decision that creating jewelry was the medium that they wished to use to express their creative selves. This year starts their thirty-second year in the jewelry business. Both Ann and Mary are members of the Florida Craftsman Guild and the Florida Society of Goldsmiths. Their work has been selected to be shown and sold at many fine craft galleries across the US and England.
