GG's Gemstones in Globe, Arizona is my handmade gemstone jewelry studio, where I create one of a kind earrings, bracelets, and necklaces. The spark began when I inherited my mother's beads and could not afford every pair of earrings I loved, so I taught myself to make them in 2017, building on years spent watching her work.

My jewelry table always carries my family with it. I still make and wear earrings that use my great grandmother's Christmas tree beads, tiny pieces of history that sparkle beside newer Rocky Mountain gemstones. My husband and grandchild help at every local event, turning each show into a small family reunion around trays of stones.

I'm Gayla, the artist, designer, and maker behind every piece you see here. Ten years of self-taught technique, learned first by watching my mother and then by figuring things out at my own worktable. I guarantee everything I make, and I'm personally here for every color consultation and custom order.

My husband and grandchild show up at every event and keep things running on a phone and a laptop while I'm back at the cabin stringing, wrapping, and matching stones until each piece feels exactly right. It's a small operation held together by family, and honestly I wouldn't have it any other way.
