Founded by Dallas Maynard
Dallas Maynard creates one-of-a-kind and small-batch jewelry from her Chicago studio, pairing beautiful gemstones with unexpected details and a wonderfully whimsical point of view. Each piece feels personal, timeless, and made to be treasured—the kind of jewelry you wear for a lifetime and pass down for generations.
Raised in a family of artists, Dallas knew from a young age that she belonged in the studio. After completing all the traditional art classes offered at her local art center in Wichita, Kansas, Dallas enrolled in a metalsmithing class, and her love of jewelry making was solidified. After graduating from the Gemological Institute of America, Dallas honed her fabrication skills as a bench jeweler and apprenticed under a master goldsmith in her hometown.
Dallas launched her eponymous fine jewelry line in 2012 after landing in Chicago, and it has since developed into a stunning collection of unique, hand crafted treasures. Inspired by nature and the romantic beauty of bygone eras, Dallas’s work lends a nod to traditional design elements while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of color, composition and balance. Gorgeous colored stones, unexpected settings and asymmetrical clusters are just a few of Dallas Maynard Jewelry’s signature design elements.
