Living and working in Chicago, Ellie Thompson's design vocabulary is influenced by the modern architecture and complex urban fabric of her environment. The structural steel of the elevated train and the pure forms of Chicago's early modern skyscrapers are translated into the platinum posts and clean planes of her City Rhythms and Time Space jewelry collections.Ellie Thompson has won numerous awards for her innovative use of precious colored gemstones and metals. She has earned the prestigious Spectrum Award three times and the American Vision Award twice. She has also received accolades from World Gold Council and Platinum Guild International. In 2000, she was awarded First Prize in the American Jewelry Design Council's New Talent Competition, an award that launched her into the national spotlight. She earned her degree as a gemologist from the Gemological Institute of America.
