Inside the world of Melanie Mirabel Jewellery, where handcrafted pieces in recycled gold and silver are designed one story at a time. Meet the Berlin label turning family heirlooms into modern keepsakes.
If jewelry means more to you than a finishing touch, if you want pieces made just for you or for the people you love most, cast in precious metal and produced sustainably by hand in Germany, the creations of jewelry designer Melanie Mirabel Freifrau von Perfall are worth a closer look.
The designer behind the label
Melanie Mirabel, founder and creative force behind the eponymous jewelry label, grew up in Düsseldorf as part of a large family. Her career first took her through a string of international companies, where she worked in marketing and product development. The real turning point came in 2011, when she moved to Barcelona with her family and launched her own jewelry label there. With a sharp eye for design and craftsmanship, she built the business into a name recognized across Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. After twelve years abroad, she returned to Germany in 2021 and now runs her label from Berlin, where she lives with her French husband, their three sons, and their Labrador.
The Melanie Mirabel Jewellery label
Melanie Mirabel Jewellery stands for handcrafted, personalized jewelry made with meticulous attention to detail. Every piece is individually crafted from recycled gold and silver. The label doesn’t just talk about sustainability — it works exclusively with recycled precious metals and refuses plastic packaging outright. That blend of traditional craft and modern environmental standards makes every piece from the Berlin brand a one-of-a-kind, sustainable original.
Sustainability and quality
The philosophy at Melanie Mirabel Jewellery rests on a tight bond between quality and environmental awareness. Every piece is handcrafted in the Berlin goldsmith’s workshop using only recycled precious metals sourced from Germany, and plastic-free packaging keeps that sustainable ethos intact from start to finish. The idea behind it all: jewelry that’s beautiful to look at while holding onto the stories and memories of the people who wear it. Alongside christening necklaces, the designer creates family necklaces, each one available with a personal engraving.
