Our New Website!
|
We are in the process of designing a new website. It is far from finished, so please be patient with us as we build it. You can preview the new site at this link:
Unfortunately this site will not read well on Apple's new IOS8 at this time. Apple is aware of the bugs in the new software and hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Michael Michaud

Click on any image to see more of Michael's work.
We have always loved Michael Michaud's beautiful botanical jewelry. Traditionally, his jewelry is cast in bronze with a warm green patina. This year, he developed a new look, adding gold plate and a black patina to his bronze jewelry. Here are a few of his new designs.
 | Driftwood Necklace |
Artist Michael Michaud studied at the Rochester Institute of Technology's prestigious school for American craftsmen, graduating in 1980. While there he studied under the esteemed designers Hans Christenson and Gary Griffin mastering many of he techniques he uses today.
 | Petite Driftwood bracelet |
In 1991, fortunate enough to be living in the Connecticut countryside and working near New York City's flower district, Michael's love of nature began to combine with his love of jewelry.
 | Calla Lilly earrings |
Today's collection is a combination of Michael's exceptional knowledge of jewelry making and his love of nature. He has perfected the technique of creating models from natural elements and, after models are made, manipulating these "copies of nature" into beautiful jewelry. Using bronze, sterling silver or gold and natural stones and pearls, Michael's designs have become well known for their remarkable craftsmanship and beauty.
