VERSO Papermaker & Metalsmith
VERSO jewelry is made from metal forms cast in handmade paper. The metal is dipped into a pulp of water and finely beaten paper fibers from a plant called abaca. The fibers cling to the metal and shrink as they dry. A tight, translucent paper skin is built up on the form over successive dips. The concept is the same as making a sheet of handmade paper, but around a three-dimensional form, and by building up thin layers over the course of several days. Melanie Brauner is a metalsmith, bookbinder, and papermaker. She holds a BFA from Oregon College of Art and Craft, where she studied bookbinding, arts and metals. |
