Stephanie Elderfield is a goldsmith and contemporary jewellery artist based in Calgary, Alberta. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Jewellery + Metals from the Alberta College of Art + Design (now Alberta University of the Arts) in 2014. She draws her inspiration from the natural world found exploring her home province. Stones, reactive metals, patinas, and mixtures of fine metals are used to bring depth and colour to her work, giving an illustrative look to the finished pieces.
Working under the name of Metal Myth Studios, Stephanie makes limited production and one of kind jewellery pieces from rich coloured metals, silver and gemstones.
Stephanie’s work is inspired by beautiful plants found while exploring gardens and parks in and around her city. She is especially interested in the change of seasons in regards to her organic works. The passage of time alters the appearance of plants quite dramatically at times, and this theme is frequently found within her works.
