Original jewelery and accessories by Eryn Leedale-Merwart
Eryn Leedale-Merwart
Artist Biography
A marked difference from her original academic ambitions, Eryn began her artistic journey on a whim.
Quickly, though, jewellery design evolved into a passionate source of self-expression. She is largely self-taught, developing her own personal style in her 14 years of experience. Her work can be deceptively simple but always showcases the natural beauty and intricacy of the materials used combined with artisan craftsmanship and the use of contrast and texture. Her inspiration is drawn by the vibrancy of the natural gemstones and components she favours.
Eryn uses the best possible materials from around the world: semi-precious and precious gemstones, handmade, one-of-a-kind glass beads from leading Canadian artists, Japanese beads, as well as sterling silver, silver from Bali, 22k and 24k gold, and platinum. All these elements are combined to make a one-of-a-kind piece that enhances the individuality of the wearer.
It is her hope that each piece will convey her joy and passion for her work and her belief in the uniqueness and radiance of the individual wearing it.
