Jessie Preston was a Chicago metalsmith, active between the years of 1900 to 1918. Although she was primarily known as an Arts & Crafts designer, her pieces have an undeniable Art Nouveau quality. Preston's speciality was creating elaborate florifom candelabra, but she is also recognized for her candelsticks, lamps and jewelry.
