About
Margaret Ellis founded Margaret Ellis, Inc. in 1983 and operated it for 30 years before retiring, establishing a legacy of handcrafted jewelry that the brand describes as highly collectible. Mclaine Richardson purchased the business on December 31, 2012, and relaunched it under the same name in January 2013 to honor the founder’s design history and loyal collectors. The studio employs master metalsmiths Edward Tomlin, who has been with the studio since 1983, and Anjy Smith, since 1991, representing what the company describes as over 80 years of combined experience in jewelry creation. The brand continues to target “collectors who value craftsmanship, individuality, and enduring design.”
