About

In antiquity, garnets were thought to protect the traveler and herald a safe and successful journey. The name "garnet" originates in the Latin granatus, meaning grain, from which the pomegranate - with its red, jewel-like seeds - also takes its name. Garnets come in a variety of colors, but red garnet has always been favored, found in ancient Anglo-Saxon relics inlaid with gold. Red garnet is January's birthstone.

Artist

Lisa Gent is an artisan from Cape Elizabeth, Maine, where she has a home studio in which she crafts her jewelry. As a kid, she dreamed of being a farmer or a forester, to be able to work outside; now she dreams of having an outdoor studio. When creating her jewelry, she thinks about the kind of jewelry she would want to wear.

"My work has an organic feel in general," Lisa says. "What I make is an expression of myself."

When Lisa is not working on her latest design, she enjoys surfing, being outdoors, hiking, swimming in the lake at her family's cabin, reading and knitting. Her dog, Daisy, usually accompanies her on these adventures. Lately, while at work in her studio, she's been listening to the Grateful Dead, Norah Jones, and Peter Tosh.
