Laura Graham

For Laura Graham, making jewelry was life-changing – and our own Susan Thomas played a key role in making it happen!

Laura began making jewelry at the age of 16 and secured a position at Susan’s bead store. Laura fell in love with the art of jewelry-making and really began to develop her creative instincts. Her passion for jewelry runs deep.

Laura loved the art form so much that she enrolled at the Savannah College of Art and Design to study metals and jewelry. Laura graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. She took both her degree and her passion to NYC, where she joined the design team at David Yurman. That experience helped unite her passion for jewelry-making with an understanding of the fashion industry – from design and fabrication to finished products.

This Knoxville native has returned to her roots and is now a proud member of the JTV family of makers. And, of course, she brings all that experience with her – and through JTV, she brings that experience to you! We hope you’ll be inspired by this talented maker just as we have been.
