About Me:

Il Mare Atelier was created out of a desire to fuse art and jewelry into unique, versatile, yet wearable and affordable pieces. For the woman who prefers the thoughtfulness of an artisan's touch over off-the-peg designs.

“Il Mare” means “the sea” in Italian, with waters shimmering in an array of hues, from the blue of the deep sea to lighter azzurro, pale sea green and brilliant emerald. “Atelier” means “workshop” in French. Put together, they mean “Studio by the Sea”, a lovely intriguing dream that I am working towards.

Jewelry pieces hand forged with quality gems and materials in my studio.

I take great pride in the materials I use - gemstones must be eye-clean or AA/ AAA grade and I prefer goldfilled wires, chains, findings as they are more tarnish resistant compared to other kinds of materials.
