Monique Perry
Monique is a traditional metalsmith, metal clay artist, and an enamellist. She uses sterling silver, fine silver, precious metal clay, semi-precious gemstones, enamels, and 22 and 24kt gold accents in her work. She creates unique, one of a kind wearable works of art by combining a variety of techniques from the three disciplines.
​
Her colorful enameled work is created using the Cloisonné or Champlevé techniques. Both techniques require fusing multiple layers of opaque and/or transparent enamels to a prepared base of either copper or fine silver. Once the desired depth is achieved, the surface is ground down to a smooth, flush finish. She also incorporates semi precious gemstones in her work depending on the design.
​
Her Mexican roots, love of art and exposure to other cultures inspire her signature colors and textures.
