I grew up in a small town near Philadelphia, and I has been creating art since I was a child. My early travels during middle and high school as an exchange student to Australia, Italy, and England fueled my creative spirit. I fell in love with metalsmithing while attending the Savannah College of Art and Design in Savannah, Georgia, where I earned my BFA in Metals & Jewelry. The beauty of the South inspired many of my first designs, and throughout my countless travels I draw inspiration for JCJ jewelry. I believe art is meant to initiate thought and emotion. Jewelry is an object of beautiful adornment but also an object of deeper meaning; jewelry can be powerful. Jennifer Cervelli Jewelry is meant to make the wearer connect to the artwork. I am motivated by this connection.

After graduating from the Savannah College of Art & Design in 2007, I worked for various, amazing designers in the Bay Area, California before moving to Fort Collins, Colorado to start focusing solely on my own jewelry line. The beauty of the Rocky Mountains and the incredible scenes in Colorado are still very dear to my heart and continue influence my designs.

I moved to Los Angeles, California in 2012 where I currently reside. Each piece is individually hand-crafted with love in Hermosa Beach, just two blocks from the gorgeous Pacific Ocean along side darling Dasher, my sweet blue heeler Australian Cattle dog.

Using all recycled metals and conflict-free gems, my jewelry forms a unique relationship between the earth’s designs, its resources, and its inhabitants. Creating sustainable jewelry is my passion and dream job, thank you so much for stopping by and taking the time to get to know me and JCJ!
