Meghan Patrice Riley Handmade Fine Jewelery

Introduction: Meghan Patrice Riley Jewelry was founded in 2008 by metalsmith Meghan Riley to create light and wearable sculptural wire jewelry. With a background in math and geometry, each piece is inspired by volumetric forms, and is crafted by hand in her New York City studio. Mixing metals with textile techniques, she creates unique pieces with a feminine elegance and a industrial touch that are still light and dainty. Using thin, lightweight silver and nylon-coated steel wire as "fiber", she forms small line segments to create geometric shapes and then eventually forms that are lightweight, flexible, and adapt to the wearer. Geometric shapes were chosen as the foundation because they are simple, basic and elementary, but can be expounded on to create multidimensional forms. Each form acts like a link to interconnect with other forms, creating an even larger volumetric structure.
