The smell of good coffee and the admiration for a sea urchin shell inspired Marie-Eve Bordeleau to create beautiful jewellery with delicate designs. The pieces are formed from an imprint of a sea urchin shell or a coffee bean, and then crafted in sterling silver.

Some pieces are also carved from precious wood combined with freshwater pearls or gold. The jewelry is carefully hand-polished to enhance its organic texture and brilliance. The works are classic, bold, refined and accessible at the same time and are distinguished by their unique signature.

Marie-Ève Bordeleau is a graduate of the École de joaillerie de Québec. From her workshop located in Trois-Rivières since 2009, she innovates and renews herself constantly by combining jewelry techniques and wood carving. She makes rings for her and him, wedding rings, earrings, bracelets and pendants of great quality.

Biography

Born in Trois-Rivières in 1984, jewelry artist Marie-Eve Bordeleau is constantly striving to push the limits of the materials she works with. Her approach, which combines sculpture and textural research, has been rewarded many times by awards of excellence. Born into a family that has always been ingenious and resourceful, she dreamed of making a living from her art as a creative artisan. At the age of 12, she started designing necklaces that she sold in boutiques and festivals.

In 2004, she enrolled in the Quebec City Jewellery School where she developed a strong sculptural desire. While visiting British Columbia, she discovered sea urchin shells which inspired her to create a collection. In 2008, she produced her first jewelry in sterling silver and carved wood, combined with freshwater pearls and gold. She then set up her workshop in the family garage and founded the company Marie-Eve Bordeleau, Sculptures Prêtes à Porter. She designed a portable kiosk, inspired by a high-heeled shoe built by her father, with which she travelled throughout Quebec and Ontario, participating in several craft shows. Her first online store for Canadian customers was launched in 2013, followed closely by a second one, this time dedicated to American and international customers.

Since 2009, she has continually adapted to her clientele to offer unique, affordable and small series products. Her three collections illustrate her evolution, her quest for new textures and her determination to perfect her work.

The collections:

Like a Sea Urchin is greatly inspired by her trip to Western Canada and combines minimalism of form with a fine search for texture and relief - Precious Nature draws from nature to marry precious and recycled woods, sterling silver and freshwater pearls - Like a Coffee Bean evokes the everyday through the imprint of a coffee bean in sterling silver.

For Marie-Eve, it is very important that the jewellery she creates is affordable for different budgets in the same way that craftsmanship and creativity are a priority.  While strong and durable, the majority of the earrings are thin and light and offer incomparable comfort.

My creativity is deployed in the search for textures: the imprint of the sea urchin shell is the backdrop that influences my creations to leave a tangible trace of an unforgettable moment.

L'argent sterling est un alliage contenant des métaux qui réagissent avec les produits présents dans l'air et produisent l’oxydation. L’exposition à la lumière du soleil ainsi que l’humidité augmente cette réaction qui est tout à fait normale et facile d'y remédier.

Prenez soin de nettoyer le bijou avec un linge à polir sec (vous en recevrez un gratuitement à l'achat de chaque bijou) il est réutilisable même s'il noircit.  Si vous voulez vous en procurez, voir le produit -Mes lingettes préférées- dans le bas de cette page.

TRUC: lorsque vous ne le portez pas, déposer la pièce dans un sac hermétique, cela ralentira le processus d'oxydation et vous épargnera le nettoyage.

📍Savez vous que plus vous porterez votre bijou, plus il restera brillant? Quand vous portez votre bijou, il est en contact avec des tissus ou autres et cela agit comme un nettoyant pour le bijou.

📍Vous n'avez plus de linge à polir, quoi faire pour se dépanner? Vous pouvez utiliser un ancien linge à lunette qui ne sert plus ou un tissu doux (coton ou de la flanelle)

💧Est-ce que le bijou va à l'eau? Oui, vous pouvez porter le bijou en tout temps et même sous la douche. Afin d'enlever les résidus de savons accumulés dans les creux du bijou, nettoyer avec une brosse à dents douce et du savon à vaisselle doux.

📍Est-ce que je peux porter mon bijou lorsque je vais à la piscine ou au spa?  Oui, cependant vous devez savoir que le Chlore est un oxydant et si la quantité est au-delà du pH recommandé pour la baignade, votre bijou pourra subir un traitement de changement de couleur (bleu gris) en surface.  Il faudra ainsi polir mécaniquement votre bijou afin d'obtenir sa couleur originale ou avec la pierre d'argent.

✨ Vous avez laissé un bijou traîner trop longtemps dans l’humidité, il a noirci et vous n'arrivez pas à le nettoyer avec la lingette à polir? ✨

Pas de panique ! J’ai découvert un nettoyant naturel, simple et ultra efficace : la Pierre d’Argent.

💡 Mode d’emploi :
1️⃣ Humectez l’éponge fournie
2️⃣ Frottez la sur la pierre
3️⃣ Nettoyez délicatement votre bijou
4️⃣ Rincez bien et admirez le résultat !

Un vrai coup de magie pour retrouver la brillance de l’argent en un instant ! ✨ ------------Disponible dans la plupart des quincailleries.

For Marie-Eve, it is very important that the jewelry she creates is accessible for different budgands just like handmade production and creativity are a priority. While being sturdy and durable, the majority of earrings are thin and lightweight and offer unmatched comfort. 💓

Over time, objects present in my environment such as coffee beans and food or their peels have joined in, due to their aesthetic, sensory, or symbolic value.

It was the work of a wood retouching at the Quebec School of Jewelry that sparked in Marie-Ève Bordeleau the need to combine materials and match colors. Her unique and durable feminine pendants are inspired by shapes drawn from nature.

She applies jewelry techniques to precious wood, sometimes recycled, which she carves, sands, polishes, and oils to highlight their natural hue and grain. Elegant and classic, the pieces are paired with sterling silver and freshwater pearls. The jewelry with organic contours are true little portable sculptures.
