Elyssa Bass
Having developed a love for jewelry at an early age in her grandmother's antique shop, Elyssa Bass is a designer of luxury, statement-making pieces that mirror the glamour and panache of the early to mid 1900s. Determined to offer distinctive creations and superior quality, Elyssa searches the world, acquires the finest gems available and designs powerful, show-stopping creations that command attention and combine the worlds of fashion, fantasy, and extravagance.
While designing, Elyssa is drawn back to the early to mid 1900 pieces she pored over in her grandmother's store. She recalls the way each piece displayed not only a unique style, but seemed to tell a story and emit a connection to the complex world outside fashion. The rings, brooches and pendants she handled as a child expressed the collective mood of the nation and offered a dose of hopefulness and fantasy that was so widely needed at the time.
Elyssa Bass is based in Atlanta, USA.
