Nichole McIver- Acanthus Jewelry

A thousand facets sits down with Nichole McIver from Acanthus jewelry. We discuss her background in art, how she found medieval illuminated manuscripts as something she wanted to dive in and how she found jewelry and self taught herself, finding her own voice and the vehicle for her to showcase her creativity. NICHOLE MCIVER has a background in two-dimensional studio art, and art history. Her passion for hand crafting personal adornment is rooted in her fascination with precious historical objects. She continues to find inspiration in everything from the decorative foliage found in the margins of illuminated manuscripts, to the secret symbolism of Victorian mourning jewelry. Nichole is a self-taught maker and Acanthus is hand made by her personally, in her home studio in Central Minnesota.
