(click thumbnails to learn more about each piece)





Hi-Strung Designs offers a collection of fine artisan jewelry designed and meticulously handcrafted by San Francisco Bay Area jewelry designer Mary Blaire Wolf.
Having designed jewelry for more than 10 years, I am an absolute perfectionist when it comes to quality and craftsmanship. I hand-select richly colored, fine-grade precious and semiprecious gemstones, genuine Swarovski crystals and lustrous freshwater pearls, then combine them with precious metals and leather elements to bring to life feminine and sophisticated necklaces and earrings. Quality and craftsmanship are two hallmarks of my business, and I design for women who aren't willing to compromise on either of those things.
Each piece is my original design and reflects a keen eye and fashion sensibility for style, color, texture and composition that highlights the beauty of the gemstones and materials used.
My focus is on easily wearable pieces in deceptively simple styles that catch your eye with their clean lines and beautiful, sparkling stones. Less apparent - but just as important - is the complex design process that specifically highlights the rich color, texture and glow of just one or a few gemstones. Every single choice - from the chain to the number of wire wraps to the clasp - must lend itself perfectly to the balance of the design.
These necklaces and earrings are "go-to" pieces you'll want to live in - because the gemstones are gorgeous and this jewelry looks just as fabulous with jeans as with a cocktail dress.

High Quality Is My Hallmark, Even When Gold & Silver Prices Skyrocket
Precious metals continue to increase significantly in value - and in cost - for all of us.
However, I remain steadfast in my commitment to provide high-quality artisan jewelry that will stand the test of time.
Therefore, although the cost of precious metals has increased substantially, I continue to use beautiful and durable 14K gold-filled and sterling silver materials. I know they will provide you many years of enjoyment and hold their value, unlike base metals or plated metals.
High quality is one of the hallmarks of my business. And I know it is one of the reasons you continue to shop with Hi-Strung Designs Jewelry.
