MELISSA

Melissa specializes in custom, one-of-a-kind, and redesigned handmade gold jewelry, utilizing old world techniques such as forging, piercing, forming and lost-wax casting. Known for incorporating unusual, irregular-shaped gemstones into her work, she enjoys the challenge of hand-making bezels for these stones and hand-forging the mountings. Drawing inspiration from art-deco architecture, nature, and the human form, she crafts each piece to incorporate asymmetrical balance and proportion.

In her private consultations, Melissa has the unique ability to connect with each client to gather design details that lead to the creation of a one-of-a-kind piece reflective of the client’s individual personality and style.
