Michal Golan

Michal Golan is an Israeli born, New York City based, painter, printer and jewelry designer. In her studio Michal creates hand worked jewelry pieces which combine the look of the antique with contemporary fashion sensibility. Her unusual style and technique and meticulous attention to detail distinguish these ornately jeweled designs.

Michal's designs are inspired by Byzantine jewelry with its generous use of gemstones and pearls, and from jewelry made during the reign of Queen Victoria. Influences from Middle Eastern art, particularly mosaic styles are also apparent in her lavish decoration of surfaces and use of brilliant colors
