Lake Superior Agate Pendants & Jewelry

Welcome to GG Gitche Gumee Handcrafted Jewelry by Gina Harman.  Lake Superior is legendary for her beauty, strength and power.  For centuries the Ojibwe people have regarded this body of water as "Gitche Gumee", meaning "Big Sea" or "Huge Water".  Lake Superior is the largest of the Great Lakes and is also the world's largest freshwater lake by surface area.  It is here, throughout the northern shores of the Upper Peninsula that I find spectacular Lake Superior Agates and through a series of intricate steps, turn them into jewelry.  

My Newest GG Creations
All of newest pieces of Lake Superior Agate Jewelry comes with a GG Charm.  These give my work the a branding that makes it easy to share with friends.  I have these charms made customized for my business and my Premiere line of pieces come with a GG on the Pendant, along with a GG Charm on the necklace.

Along with my jewelry, I would also like to introduce to you some of my daughter's work - Rose Paintings by Jess.  She carefully paints each piece with precision and care.


Each of my Lake Superior Agate Pendants & Jewelry pieces are handcrafted and wrapped in copper. The copper wire wrap and pendant is then patinaed.  Afterwards I polish the highlighted area for a nice rich texture and is finished with a necklace. Great pendant to wear year-round - especially while rockhounding!  ALL of my pendants come with a 21" antique copper plated necklace.

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they called Gitche Gumee
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy
