Design Talent: Ann Lambrecht Glickman

Specialty: “My jewelry is a blend of gemstones, precious metals, found objects, and talismans that are both beautiful and meaningful.”

Background: “Prior to studying design at the University of Minnesota, I was raised in a house where arts and crafts were encouraged. My kindergarten macaroni necklaces were proudly worn by my mother.”

Target customer: “A woman who has a strong sense of style and is comfortable in her skin.”

Inspiration: “Ancient civilizations, exotic cultures, and travel. In one piece, I combined fossilized dinosaur bone with antique beads from Beijing and trade beads from Africa.”

Price Range: Most often $300 to $700.
