Elise Moran [1990, Jewelry/Metalsmithing]
Elise Moran’s nature inspired silver and gold jewelry collections are started with a sketch then modeled in silver. Models are then cast in order to create multiples. The castings are cleaned and finished and then put together in different configurations to make earrings, pendants, necklaces, etc. Most pieces are satin-finished with hand-made findings. Every step except the casting process is executed from start to finish by Elise.
