CLAMÉ seeks that every woman believes in the beauty of her body and how valuable it is, through ethereal, quality garments that are hand-dyed, making them unique. My source of inspiration to nature was my grandmothers, that's why the emphasis on timeless garments and for all ages without following a trend, but a style.
Inspired in the beauty and freedom inherent in the bohemian lifestyle, fashion editor and stylist turned jewelry designer, Marimerce Santiago has designed an eclectic array of collections, ranging from simple beach inspired necklaces to architecturally constructed and beautifully complex pieces. Each and every individual composition of hidden treasures is distinctive and intended to make you feel unique. The designs fall within defined categories, which are perfect for layering in diverse combinations for numerous effects.

"This is not about becoming famous (amazing if it happens), it’s about people loving and wanting to wear my products. It’s about experimenting with new materials and methods, about creating new concepts and stories and translating them into beautiful pieces of art that a human being can wear and loves to wear. It’s about relevance. It’s about integrating the admirer with the process. It’s about showing others what can be achieved with tools not designed for this purpose. It’s about involving you so that you want to know more. It’s not about me, its about what I can do. It’s about creating a new kind of jewelry." -Ms. Sofia Tort (Feb. 25, 2018)

MIC URBAN
Let’s start at the beginning. Raised by antique-loving parents in a 1770 Connecticut farmhouse, Mic’s family was conventional, but his upbringing was not. Third generation Polish immigrants, Mic’s parents realized the importance of travel in their children’s lives. The Urban family explored the world, and at one point, moved to rural Brazil to become dairy farmers and open an English school. His exposure to different cultures at a young age helped him realize the importance of the value of quality, culture and design.
His desire to perfect his Spanish led him to Puerto Rico in his teens, where graduated from the University of Puerto Rico. The lushness of the island and tropical life enchanted him.
Influenced by the dichotomy of New England and the Caribbean, he began to upcycle antique silverware into wearable art. Unawarely, this was the beginning of Mic’s jewelry making career.
Mic’s style and techniques have developed over the course of 8 years. He continued his studies at La Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México in Taxco under the tutelage of master silversmiths who shun machine-made, mass-produced jewelry. Making many of his tools by hand, Mic learned techniques such as pre-Columbian casting, used by ancient Aztecs.
Mic’s interest in all things ancients is what keeps him exploring aesthetics from around the world. While designs vary, there are undeniable similarities in cultures which are oceans apart. Lines, dots, and spirals are arranged in similar patterns, bringing him to the conclusion that there are elements that unite us all as humans. Mic’s jewelry has become his expression of the elements that join us all. He lives and works in Puerto Rico, the Island of Enchantment.
