story
melisa medalle
founder/designer
working in advertising, Melisa was surrounded by
artistic colleagues who encouraged her to pursue
her creative expression. in 2007, she decided
to leave a successful career in advertising in order
to pursue this ambition.
since, she has found success creating handcrafted jewelry
made with found, recycled, and vintage materials for that
extra feel-good wearability.
these one-of-a-kind, environmentally friendly creations
are the perfect combination of Melisa’s talents and passion.
