Designed by Michael Michaud, this beautiful bracelet takes Myrtle as its source of inspiration.
The beginning of Greek Jewellery is traced back to the dawn of the Hellenic civilization. Jewellery has been linked to important moments in Greek society and culture. The Artisans of Greek Ornamentation took inspiration from Myrtle, which the Greeks held sacred. Visitors in the Olympic games and the mythological figures wore myrtle wreaths.
The Myrtle's white flowers and lance shaped leaves serve as the inspiration for this elegant jewellery. Michael Michaud is known for his ability to recreate nature in metal.This beautiful collection is cast from real flora, capturing each natural detail of the original. It is then hand finished in bronze, sterling silver or gold using genuine stones and pearls.

Michael Michaud
Creating moulds directly from nature, Michael Michaud’s exquisitely detailed pieces are made using a process similar to lost-wax casting, with actual plant matter encased, then heated and burnt away to form his moulds.
Michaud’s natural forms and textures are complimented with soft patinas on bronze, accented with pearls, beads, coral and stones.
