Rachelle Thiewes

Rachelle Thiewes is a metal-smith which creates wearable pieces of jewelry. She works with the materials of steel, gold, silver, and slate to create her artwork. Rachelle creates her work to be not just wearable but also to be an extension of the human body. Her metal creations come in the form of highly-detailed necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. Rachelle’s work captures the imagination because it challenges the modern perception of what art is and gives the word an entirely new meaning. She is interested in both integration of the piece of jewelry, the movement with the body, and the sound which it creates.
