Last December I attended a holiday shopping event at the Steam Whistle Brewing, and briefly met Melissa Clemente. I immediately fell in love with her large pieces of jewelry. The designer herself was very nice too!
If you're interested in unique, Canadian-made pieces, check out her website to view her latest collections and "stockists" to look at the items in-store.
Here are a few of my favourites:
NECKLACE, Anihan Collection, Spring/Summer 08
- sterling silver plated leaf and bamboo on platinum plated and surgical steel chains
NECKLACE, Graphic Couture Collection, Spring/Summer 09
- vintage findings, leather pink semiprecious stones, shell, pearls, brass, etched sterling silver, plastic and glass on surgical steel chain
$185
NECKLACE, Tomorrow Vision Collection, Spring/Summer 09
- Chinese crystal, white turquoise and agate with brass and surgical steel charms on a variety of gold plated chains
$185
NECKLACE, Tomorrow Vision Collection, Spring/Summer 09
- black pearls and glass beads with brass maple leaf charms on gold plated chain
$210, or $147 online
Her website also advertises a special service for weddings. Make your wedding day extra special with custom-designed jewellery! I think it's a fantastic idea.
"MCD wedding packages are designed to fit your style and budget. Materials range from pearls, semi-precious stones and gems, to more organic materials such as abalone, sea bamboo and coral. A large variety of chain is offered, including vintage, platinum, copper and rose gold."
