Melanie Elyse Brewster | Velvet Seahorse Jewelry

I strive to create jewelry that is both whimsical and challenging. My most recent line, Sculptural Upcycling, uses vintage and found objects to create large-scale metal necklaces and bracelets. Much like a bowerbird gathering colorful treasures, I scour garage sales, markets, and antique stores for orphaned jewelry to repurpose. The resultant pieces are often botanical in nature, resembling industrialized bouquets of metal flowers and foliage.
