Darlene Martin is a jewellery designer from Toronto Canada. Her Bijouxbead Wearable Art collections include necklaces, bracelets and earrings, all handmade, featuring glass metal and stone. Her work is represented in several Canadian galleries, and is frequently worn by celebrities.
"My muse is Canada; its nature, its people, its inimitability, and the horizontal links between them. My work has a distinct aesthetic that draws from several different mediums -be it glass, metal or stone. To feel the warmth that transfers from the wearer to these pieces inspired the Bijouxbead tagline feel what you wear, wear what you feel. As my handmade collection of necklaces, bracelets and earrings develops, so too does my passion for incorporating the Canadian experience into my work." -Darlene Martin, Bijouxbead
