Melissima
Our Philosophy
Four principles govern everything we make. They are deliberately restrictive.
Comfort is a design requirement
If a piece is uncomfortable it will not be worn, and unworn jewellery has failed regardless of how beautiful it is. Every design is worn continuously for a month before release.
Restraint over noise
We remove until removing anything more would break the design. Trend-led detail is the first thing to go.
Honest materials
We state exactly what everything is made of, including where we have chosen a more affordable material and why.
Built to be repaired
Nothing we make is designed to be replaced. Everything is designed to be kept.
