About Melissa Gisele Fine Jewelry

I make powerful jewelry that gives the wearer a feeling of comfort and confidence. My muse; the mountains, lakes, and flora, constantly teach me the power of simplicity. The reflection of birds flying across a still lake. The zig zag pattern of snowy mountain peaks. The patterns of leaves and petals. I highlight nature’s perfect curation of simplicity, repetition, and texture into my jewelry designs. I am intrigued by the intimacy of jewelry making; from working closely with metal and stone, to the connection of the piece and the client. Each piece is made with careful consideration of design and wearability. Born in the countryside of New England, I am inspired by the constant exposure to the wilderness throughout her upbringing. My connection to nature combined with my love of travel is the burning fuel that drives my bold yet simple designs. I use traditional metalsmithing and lapidary techniques to hand fabricate each piece individually. Stones are cut and polished, metal is soldered and forged. After a messy and intricate process a clean polished piece is ready for wearing. Read their story
