Captve

Captve’s bracelets, rings and necklaces aren’t just ornamental. The sterling silver and brass pieces (which start out as wax-hewn moulds) have an intellectual in philosophical subtext. Take the “Manus” collection: the hand motif evokes the anxiety and comfort of being surrounded by people.

Forestiere

Designed in Northern Ontario by Sarah K. MacLellan, Forestiere is a sustainable and material-driven line. MacLellan dies natural cotton fibres using indigo and persimmon. The threads are then wrapped around metal hardware or left as swishy tassels on necklaces.
 

Neshka

With the foothills of the Rocky Mountains serving as inspiration, this Millarville, Alberta designer Neshka creates jewellery with an emphasis on sculpture and silhouette. The “Black” collection is especially striking, consisting of architectural, oversized pendants that evoke gothic pointed ceilings.
