about

Eleanor McClure-Chute is a Maine-raised, Brookyn-based multimedia artist with a lifelong passion for history, craft, and adornment.  

​

The ancient and the unexpected collide at the jeweler's bench, as old styles and techniques inform the creation of future heirlooms and everyday pieces alike.  Sourcing recycled metals and reclaimed stones honors the past and helps protect the earth for the coming generations. 

​

The name of Per Omnia Jewelry refers to the Latin phrase per omnia secula seculorum, ancient words which roughly translate to "through all the ages and ages," or "forever and ever." The phrase is quoted in Gabriel Garcia Marquez's 100 Years of Solitude, a favorite book . Its pages are infused with vibrant sensory experiences, everyday magic, eclectic characters, and a playful relationship with the passage of time – all qualities embodied in Eleanor's artistic practice and jewelry designs.
