About The Artist

Megan Wiley • Minneapolis, MN
Jewelry • WHOLESALE AVAILABLE • CUSTOM COMMISSIONS

Solid Design Studios grew out of a natural impulse to make contemporary jewelry to complement the women's apparel and accessories in which I had immersed myself during time spent as a magazine editor and writer, and in retail, where I worked for fashion-forward women's boutiques. I use sterling silver and 14-karat gold-filled metals, semiprecious gemstones and supple leathers. For my signature collection I weave chain with leather to create pieces that can be worn from day to night.

Q&A with the Artist

Tell us how your work is made.

For my signature collection I weave chain with leather to create pieces that can be worn from day to night. I use sterling silver and 14-karat gold-filled metals, semiprecious gemstones and supple leathers.


What makes you passionate about the medium you work with?

I am a very tactile person, and these woven pieces have a great handfeel to them, and feel great on the body. They have an order to their design that is very satisfying both to make and to appreciate while being worn.

What is something unique about you or your practice?

I used to work in magazine editorial, and channeled my creativity into jewelry making.
