Aflame Creations Jewelry creates colourful handmade enameled copper jewelry. Enamels are coloured glass powders melted onto copper in a kiln at 1500F. Each colour reacts differently in the kiln, creating subtle variations to every piece.
Megan Archer designs and produces each item by hand. The dense forests, salty ocean waves and ever-changing skies in her hometown of Halifax, Nova Scotia inspire the imagery of her collections.
After spending her childhood years in the rivers and forests of Nova Scotia, Megan flew overseas to live in London, England. During her 4 years abroad she traveled throughout Europe and Northern Africa, and lived in Lagos, Nigeria for 6 months. Upon returning to Canada, she landed in Montreal to complete her university degree in Cultural Anthropology.
Megan has been single-handedly operating Aflame Creations since 2011, and enjoys selling her work at the Halifax Seaport Farmer's Market on weekends. Her collections can be found in select boutiques across Canada and the US, and she holds Juried Status with the Nova Scotia Designer Crafts Council.
A believer in life-long learning, Megan is a certified yoga instructor, speaks fluent French and is learning Mandarin Chinese, plays classical piano and is learning to play the harp, and finds that ice-skating gets easier each time.
