Biography
  Alley Maranto is a born and bred Chicago girl. She received both her B.F.A. and Teaching Certificate from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. After working primarily with found objects making one-of-a-kind pieces, she began incorporating pearls and precious metals into her work. Her current explorations with resin amulets originated by a gift of a Thai Buddha amulet from her best friend Josie. When not making jewelry, she can be found on horseback with her family or at the restaurant she owns with her husband.
