MARTELL STUDIO is a collection of elevated bohemian, sophisticated, handcrafted jewelry created by designer Dana Martell. Distinguished by the use of gemstones, Japanese glass seed beads, fine European findings and leather, many anchored with magnetic clasps. It speaks of the love of adventure, nature and handcrafted work passed from ancient times. The use of the peyote stitch is a hallmark of the collection to date. Made in Malibu, CA, Martell Studio is a true labor of love by extremely gifted artisans who create each piece one bead at a time. A single small gold-plated bead on each bracelet is the Martell Studio signature.
Tiny black spinel beads glisten in this smaller silhouette from Martell studio.

A tapered silver bar and single strand of brushed black leather meet in a secure magnetic clasp closure. This elevated Boho style is a small artisanal treasure.
