Meet Jewelry Designer Abigail Fincannon

Fincannon's hand-made creations are available exclusively at David Douglas Diamond in Northeast Cobb.

Abigail Fincannon, a custom jewelry designer, got her Bachelors of Fine Arts in Jewelry and Metals at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina. Over the summer of 2010, she began developing her line of jewelry, called Mettle, at David Douglas Diamonds.

"The whole reason I got in to jewelry and art was because I had plenty of things I wanted to share with the world and I truly loved the relationship people have with their jewelry," said Fincannon. "I am also deeply intrigued by the complex relationships of wearer and jeweler, wearer and viewer, and artist and viewer. Jewelry, to me, is the best medium to develop that conversation.

“I love forming, hammering, creating, exploring, assembling, and fabricating unique, one-of-a-kind pieces,” she said.

The Mettle collection features argentium silver, which has unique properties that prevent the sterling silver from tarnishing. The hand-forged designs have a unique flare. Some pieces even include gemstones and yellow gold. Mettle is a constantly evolving body of work. You can also commission Fincannon to create a custom piece of jewelry.

View Fincannon's Mettle collection at the 'Mettle Event' today 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. at David Douglas Diamonds. Get a free jewelry cleaner with any Mettle purchase.
