The MELM Design Rings boast magnificently metallic exteriors and high-quality construction. Despite the fact that these pieces have a rugged exterior they are surprisingly chic and feminine jewelry pieces. The creative mind and designer behind MELM Design and these delightful rings is Melbourne-based artist Melissa Matveyeff.
Each of Matveyeff's fallen star-inspired creations are cast in a choice of silver or bronze. The rings are then hand-painted with a oxidsation agent, which is intended to emphasize the unique crystal shapes and formation common in metals. All of Matveyeff's jewelry pieces have a raw, rugged and solid appeal to them that reinforce their high quality.
These metallic materials, thanks to Matveyeff's artistic nature and creative eye, contrast beautifully with these femininely beautiful mineral-inspired trinkets.
