Welcome! Here's a little bit about me and my story.

As a child, I was always fascinated by gemstones. I can still remember the first trip I took, as a teenager, to the New York City Fashion District to purchase beads, findings and stringing supplies! I explored wall to wall waterfalls of amazing gemstones in each store. I felt that I had won the gem lottery.

The best part for me has always been gem shopping. I realized from the beginning how crucial it was to select gems in person, and not from a website. This is how I find new inspiration!! The gem inspires the design. I established Jill Lynn & Co. in 1999 when I was 19. It's now 25 years later and I still love the gem hunt!

I am a self-taught jewelry designer and I design my own creations using the lost wax technique (carving wax by hand and casting into a precious metal), beading gemstones, and utilizing computer generated designs. The process I choose depends upon what I want to create. As my talents matured, I began to create metal rings, pendants and bracelets using precious metals and gemstones. I have a GIA (Gemological Institute of America) certification in Diamonds. I continue to study colored gemstones and pearls through the GIA program. There is always something new to learn!

However, it is not all about gems when it comes to Jill Lynn & Co. It is about you. Over time, I have come to know my clients and their families as really good friends. From the Engagement ring, to Wedding Bands, Gifts for life events, Birthdays, Anniversaries and just because.

I marry the knowledge I have from years of designing and creating with you. I am always excited to share my expertise and gems to create a custom design or answer your design questions and ideas!

My Store:

In 2005, I opened my first store in Sag Harbor, NY. After a few years in Sag Harbor, I moved to Jobs Lane in Southampton where Jill Lynn & Co resided for 13 years.

In the Spring of 2020, I closed the shop and moved to Connecticut with my family. Although I don't have a store in the Hamptons anymore, you can still meet me at my next trunk show or my Jewelry Studio in Wilton CT! Check the Trunk Show schedule for future dates!
