MADELEINE REAY DESIGN
Madeleine Reay carefully designs each piece of jewellery with intention and purpose.
Our jewellery is inspired by the character and forms of modern art and architecture. Twentieth century sculptural silhouettes, Art Deco details, and colourful Pop Art influences are reflected in our distinct collections.
In the tradition of fine artisanship, each piece is made by hand from the inception of design to the final, polished product. Our jewellery is made-to-order ensuring that no two pieces are exactly alike.
We believe that each and every one of us deserve to wear high-quality jewellery that reflects our shared history and own individuality.
All of our pieces are made-to-order.

ETHICAL PRODUCTION
We are committed to implementing and promoting ethically and environmentally sound practices in every area of our work.
Wherever possible, we use natural, organic alternatives to the harsh chemicals that are commonly used in jewellery production.
Our dust bags are high-quality 100% cotton, manufactured in the EU. The cotton is tested under strict quality controls with proven safety. They are ethically manufactured with excellent working conditions where European Union Trade and Production Laws are followed and respected.
NATURAL MATERIALS
We believe that it is essential to use high-quality, natural materials.
We exclusively work with natural pearls, and genuine precious and semi-precious stones.
All of our metal beads are either 18 karat gold fill or vermeil.
We cast our jewellery solely in the highest quality sterling silver and 18 and 24 karat gold, never using base metals or low-quality metal alloys.
MODERN INGENUITY
Madeleine Reay jewellery is distinguished by its classic lines and modern designs. Familiar forms are reimagined to create distinctive, fearless, and current demi-fine jewellery.
We use an age old technique known as 'lost wax' casting. Each design is hand-carved in wax before being cast in sterling silver or gold.
Each piece of jewellery is markedly handmade, as no two pieces are exactly alike. Like its wearer, each piece of jewellery is a proud and confident display of perfect imperfection.
THE DESIGNER
Madeleine Reay Sweeney was born in Toronto, Canada.
Growing up, her parents were avid art collectors. Her childhood house was accented with sculpture, painting, and textiles that her documentary cinematographer father brought home from every continent of the world. Photographs, clothing, and jewelry told stories through colour, texture, and design. Images of the azure seas of Zanzibar, fishing boats dotting the ochre, desert coast of Peru, and the vivid, viridian green of the mountains of Ethiopia incited her curiosity.
Her formative years were spent with her mother touring art galleries, museums, and theatres in Toronto. A life permeated with art and design, at the age of 18, she moved to Montréal to immerse herself in the study of visual art. Madeleine earned a degree in painting and drawing, as well as art history.
Madeleine launched her inaugural jewellery collection, Madeleine Reay, in 2015. She currently resides in Vancouver, Canada where she lives and works by the sea.
