Handcrafted Designer Jewelry
Stephen LeBlanc draws his inspiration from the natural world with his line of hand forged jewelry. Each piece is created from one piece of material, which LeBlanc stretches and forms to its extreme limit of plasticity. The medium of metal lends itself to developing these naturalistic forms with the durability and integrity afforded by hand wrought metal.

Stephen LeBlanc's work incorporates forms and essences from the natural world. In observing the interplay of form and function, his goal is to create pieces that draw people to explore this dynamic interplay. He does not strive to duplicate, but to integrate elements of these organic forms into each design. His openness to new and different styles of metal forming and forging processes is what he considers his greatest strength.
