Margaret
Ellis learned her metal-hammering techniques from the
master, Heikki Seppä. Her interpretation of his methods
is very primitive and ethnic and the heart of what she
does. “When I first started doing jewelry professionally,
26 years ago, I said that I wanted to go straight to New
York to sell my work, because if I tried to sell it in
Nashville and failed, I might get so discouraged I would
quit. I thought that if I was going to fail, I wanted
to fail big.
Interestingly enough, over the past several years, our
business in Nashville has become more and more important
to us, and a larger and larger part of our sales. It’s
great to be appreciated in your own home town.”
