LAINEY PAPAGEORGE

Lainey Papageorge was born in Atlanta, Georgia USA into a large Greek family. She grew up playing among the rocks and streams in an old-growth wilderness forest that bordered her childhood home and ignited her artist's voice. She found expression first as a dancer and choreographer, and then as an award-winning jewelry designer. Her jewelry has been featured on the cover of Lapidary Journal and she is a Spectrum Award winner, an honor given by the American Gem Trade Association (AGTA) to the best national jewelry designs. Lainey was also invited to judge the "Cutting Edge" competition, a showcase for the most spectacular gemstone carvings and faceted specimens on the North American continent. In 2014 the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia presented a 40-Year Retrospective of her work... Lainey Papageorge has been delighting clients for over 35 years with her creative mix of precious gems and minerals.
