Michelene Berkey, Jewelry

Living in the foothills west of Denver, Berkey’s jewelry designs are a reflection of the natural world that surrounds her.

Small twigs are cast in gold and silver. Leaves are created by placing textured paper into a rolling mill and embossing the texture onto the sheets of silver. Each piece of jewelry is fabricated using traditional gold and silversmithing techniques.
