THE METALHEAD JEWELRY GENESIS

Metalhead jewelry emerged from the universal pause of quarantine, when artist-looking-for-her-art-form, Nora Goldie, lost her job due to the pandemic. Nora had lightly dabbled in metalsmithing since a summer workshop before high school in 2008, but it wasn’t until September 2020 that she bought her very first tools. Jeweler's saw in hand, she swiftly realized that this was what she wanted to do every day for the rest of her life--and Nora Goldie Metals (the original name) was born!

 

The name Nora Goldie Metals never felt right to Nora Goldie, who works mostly in silver (you see?). So several months into her new business, she changed the name to Metalhead Jewelry. Not only is jewelry basically metal that you wear on your head and Nora's style SO METAL, but Nora has been proud listener of metal music since the 5th grade. It just made sense. 

​

Nora fabricates all of her wearable art in her new basement home studio with a lot of heart and hard labor. Every piece of one-of-a-kind jewelry is designed, created, photographed, and marketed by Nora herself. 

​

In addition to metalsmithing, Nora loves cooking, baking, eating, traveling, exercising, goofing around with her fiancé Andy, and all things creative. She hopes you enjoy her work as much as she enjoys the creation process!
