substance designs jewelry, an indie collection made from handpicked and globally collected materials, is assembled by hand in the studio of Carolyn Healy.  Great consideration is given to the materials, textures, colors, the way light reflects or passes through each, and the source of the components.

With years of creative experience making stained glass, a Masters in Literature, and a Design education from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Carolyn combines creativity, discipline, and keen eye for simple lines to create the substance designs jewelry line.

substance designs is driven to charitable giving, purchases components locally and through independent sellers, and support products made in the USA.
