About

CLEA Jewelry, Milwaukee, WI

I am a self taught artist with a lot of imagination.  I delight in using odd metal bits, recycled & repurposed hardware, antique and/or costume jewelry beads, chain etc to create my pieces.  The majority of wire I use is recycled from old electronics, the hardware I dug for in junk stores-which I love- rummage sales, and so on.  All the semi-precious stones I use are genuine, silver earring hooks are sterling.  I cut all of the leather cording, and chain by hand, using end caps and clasps I have purchased.  I truly love what I do, and I believe that shines through in my wearable art. 

-Best,
