Michelle Goldfinger is a self-taught metalsmith specializing in handcrafted jewelry, home décor, and gifts made from upcycled and repurposed vintage objects. Each piece that is created begins with a found item, thoughtfully reimagined into something new while honoring its original story.

Michelle’s work is deeply influenced by a lifelong love of vintage ephemera, a fascination that began in childhood. After her grandmother passed away, she inherited her tin box once filled with sewing notions—an object rich with memory, texture, and meaning. Its intricate details, worn surfaces, and beautiful colors continue to inspire her practice. These vintage tins have shaped Michelle’s creative approach, where every piece blends personal history, careful craftsmanship, and timeless design.
