I believe in designing one off, unique jewelry with the best materials that will speak to the person who wears it. My jewelry stands out due to its innovative designs coming to life when interacting against the body. I want my jewelry to shout out "Life is Beautiful and Joyful"!
I am Jacqueline Morren, owner of JaxJewels and am a constant scholar to my vocation and of Wabi Sabi. I aspire to be a fully ethical silversmith and to use recycled materials and as few chemicals as possible.
Why is it that my work looks different from the rest?
Traditionally a silversmith has to design jewelry conforming to the shape of the stone. As a trained jade carver and artist, I can escape these boundaries to adapt, beautify and harmonize my materials, giving you a trendy, exciting creation.
I have a deep, strong connection to precious jade and it never fails to motivate me to explore new forms, shapes, designs and methods.
Maker's marks are left intentionally; I have no inclination towards smooth perfection and always create with an open mind and an open heart to allow my materials to guide me. I love discovering, usually after a long process, the magical combination of metals and jade that feels right, This makes this wonderful green stone come alive and reach its fullest potential - enjoy!
