Melt'm Jewelry Design

Handmade , unique ,gemstone , metalwork designer jewelry located at Redlands. I design all my products myself and I make each of them myself, therefore they are unique, handmade, each and some of them one of a kind products. I choose and buy the precious stones in the Grand Bazaar of Istanbul myself, which I use in my jewelry. I take custom orders from the customers and I design new models as they wish. I reflect my creativity and dreams to my jewelry. My artistic style is influenced by nature and natural forms and transforms the traditional to modern. My general artistic style can be defined as modern minimalist

Established in 2007.
My childhood memories are colored with the beauty of Northern and Southern coasts of Anatolia, thanks to origins of my parents. During my studies of Law in Istanbul, the Grand Bazaar was next to the University and I do love spending time there since then. There were times which I was struck by the amazing atmosphere of the Bazaar and spend my whole evening looking around. My hobbies have always been about arts during my 18 years of lawyer career- from wood painting to oil paint and knitting. 10 years ago I decided to start dealing with jewelry. I’ve learnt the hundred years old techniques of traditional gold-smithing from the masters of this art.Living in Anatolia which is a great combination of culture, thousands-of-year-teachings and nature, makes all of my works unique and distinguished from the average. My works have been produced by traditional goldsmithing and silversmithing techniques.

I had graduated from the Law School of Istanbul University. After worked as a lawyer for 18 years I had taken private lessons in jewelry design and metal work for 2 years between 2006-2008. I am in the art of hand-made jewelry for 10 years. Every year I tried to improve myself both technically and artistically. I had a great experience in online marketing as a seller, thanks to my 8-year old shop in Etsy. Additionally, I believe that my interest in far eastern teachings, especially taoism and buddhism, for last ten years, influenced my perspective to life and art in great extent.
