As a designer and metal-smith from Arizona, I draw great inspiration from the diverse natural landscape of the southwestern United States for my work. There is nothing delicate about the desolate Southwest, or my jewelry, and I relish in both. I use quality materials; thick leather, beautiful turquoise and my own hand cast or fabricated sterling silver, gold, and bronze pendants, clasps, bracelets, earrings and belt buckles. Enjoy my version of pretty; melanie street jewelry.
