Since 1974, the institution has been dedicated to teaching handmade ancient jewelry making techniques.

The curriculum includes specialized studies such as Etruscan granulation, Byzantine chain making, cloisonné enameling, and high-karat goldwork. Students can participate in various seasonal semesters, including specialized offerings like the Enameling Intensive with Valerie Blum or Gold Week with Jeanette K Caines.

The studio is located on E 49th St, near the intersection of Madison Avenue. It is a short walk from the Channel Gardens, the Atlas public artwork, and the 437 Madison Avenue - POPS park.

Jewelry Arts Inc is recognized for its long-standing history of preserving and sharing complex metallurgical traditions. The school remains a premier destination for those seeking to master specialized, ancient craftsmanship in a supportive environment.
