ADORNED: NATASHA FERRO

By Rhiannon Russell

Out with the old, in with the new! This age–old saying plays a key role in Natasha Ferro’s jewelry design. Ferro, a local up–and–coming jewelry and fashion designer, purchases vintage necklaces, bracelets, earrings, stones, and beads and creates stunning new pieces for her line.

While in university, Ferro first began creating jewelry as a hobby. “I started to wear my jewelry and received many compliments, so I thought why not try to sell some pieces and see if this hobby could actually go somewhere further,” she explains.
When buying old jewelry to rework, Ferro is attracted to pieces, styles and colours that simply catch her eye and in which she sees great potential. Then comes the redesigning. A unique aspect of Ferro’s jewelry is that all of her jewelry is one–of–a–kind. She doesn’t make duplicates of any pieces. “I think it’s part of the beauty of my jewelry; the customer knows they are getting something truly unique,” comments Ferro. Elaborating on her jewelry designs, Ferro says, “I tend to prefer more asymmetric pieces. I love it when a piece of jewelry has a focal point that is a bit eclectic and different. I put real time, focus, and effort into creating truly beautiful pieces that stand out because of their uniqueness.”
Ferro’s distinctive jewelry line includes bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and brooches in a variety of materials: gold, silver, wood, glass, resin, shell, and semi–precious stones. Prices are affordable, ranging from $15 to $65. Ferro’s jewelry line can be purchased privately on Facebook. As well, Ferro offers jewelry parties, at which the party host receives such benefits as free jewelry.
Natasha Ferro’s line of jewelry is a fresh, eye–catching combination of vintage and modern, and provides the perfect accent for any look. V
