Wild Bryde vintage costume jewelry
American jewelry company Wild Bryde began its activity 50 years ago and is still active. Its founders, artists Michael Warner and Tracy Holzman, began their activities in the garage of their home in Richmond, California. The company name comes from McBRYDE Avenue, and WILD Cat Canyon in Richmond, where his house and garage were. Mike studied art and botany, and graduated from the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland. A nature lover, he spent a lot of time in the San Francisco Bay Area watching birds and making illustrations. It was these illustrations that formed the basis of the company’s first jewelry. Inspired by nature, jewelry designs include wild birds, plants and animals.
Over the years, Wild Bryde continued to grow and they moved from a garage to a large studio in El Sobrante, near San Francisco.
After several years, Mike Warner became the sole owner of Wild Bryde, continuing to create high-quality, nature-inspired, handcrafted jewelry. Noteworthy, the present design of jewelry already includes more than 8000 species of animals, plants and nature in the form of brooches, earrings, pins, necklaces and bracelets.
