About James Michelle
When exposed to an artist’s work, it’s sometimes assumed the pieces were made easily. But anyone that has created beauty knows this is rarely true. Our most authentic expressions arise from our trials, and James Michelle is no exception. James Michelle Jewelry was born from ashes: the mother of a newborn, a marriage in disarray, the loss of both parents, homelessness, and a brand-new diagnosis: Lyme disease. Jamie (aka James) worked tirelessly through her disease. On her bad days, she would sketch and research. On her good days, she would create with everything she had. She found that through hand stamping and forging metal; her imagination traveled to places close to her heart like the ocean and mountains. With each design, she envisioned her muse. A girl who danced with the waves hiked to watch the sunset and looked to the stars and moon for answers.
