Hazel Smyth jewelry strives to maintain the highest quality in materials and design while keeping the line accessible. Every design incorporates original hand cast pieces and features clean lines to reflect a style that is rooted in tradition yet always current. Designer Elizabeth Herff carried on this philosophy when she named the line: "Hazel" for her crafty, milliner paternal grandmother (Hazel Eller) and "Smyth" for her fashionable, couture loving maternal grandmother (Shirley Smyth Allred).
