About Us

Body and Soul Silversmith Studio is brick and mortar studio/shop in historic downtown Gettysburg, next to the Rupp House History Center.

I am Marcia, a Studio Jeweler, independent artist. Every piece you are about to see in our online shop was designed and handcrafted in-house. Although I work with precious metal and natural gemstones, my work falls into Studio Jewelry classifications. You see, there is a significant difference between conventional jewelry (fine jewelry) and Studio Jewelry. In fine jewelry, the value of the object is tied to the cost of the materials. On the other hand, Studio jewelry is art to wear handcrafted and signed pieces in which the value goes beyond the price of its material.

By nature, they are one-of-a-kind wearable art pieces that express your individual voice and values. However, besides the joy of owning a unique jewelry piece, you may want to consider the return perspective of your investment. Although art, like any other investment, offers no set guarantees, you may be looking at a long-term investment. Every artist, just like me, goes through different creative phases. In later years, each stage can be a map of the artist's lifetime career. From an investment point of view, a dollar price is attached to each phase. For this reason, take good care of your artist signed Studio Jewelry

Because our showroom blends into the open studio the place feels like it has a life of its own. You get to see the jewelry pieces being made and the tools that I use. Having this set up makes you feel a part of the process. The feedback from our customers is inspiring!
