MEET COURTNEY
Courtney Nealis Sconza is the designer and creator behind Court Jewelry.
A Chicagoland native, Courtney graduated from the University of Illinois with dual degrees in French and journalism. After graduation, she traded newspapers for jewelry making and launched her first line, Purple, featuring intricate beadwork, semi-precious stones, and vintage glass. Her work was sold in Chicago and Brooklyn.
From Passion to Craft
A chance meeting with Lawrence Graff led Courtney to the prestigious Gemological Institute of America, where she earned Graduate Gemologist and Applied Jewelry Arts degrees.
She continued developing her design, fabrication, and gemological expertise while working with respected jewelers on both the East and West Coasts before launching Court Jewelry.

Courtney believes exceptional jewelry begins with exceptional materials and meticulous attention to detail. Each piece is created with quality, durability, and individuality in mind.
Often described as “wearable art,” Court Jewelry designs bring together edgy elegance and personal expression. Every piece has a story of its own, created to be treasured for generations.
