About

I’m Wendy McManus, and I believe jewelry can help you feel more connected in this crazy world.  I am inspired by the amazing, intricate textures I find in gardens, forests and shorelines wherever I go.  In my humble little studio, I translate these organic discoveries to silver, copper and bronze jewelry that’s easy to wear everyday.

My designs are created in metal clay, a revolutionary new material that works like clay, and fires in the kiln to solid metal.  By working in metal clay, I create earrings and pendants that express all the tiny details of the most delicate leaf or the most intricate coral. I use a variety of colorful patinas to highlight each texture.

Each of my creations is a wearable expression of the natural world.  I hope you’ll wear them with the same sense of satisfaction, connection and happiness that I feel when I’m making them.
