Mia Hebib

Oblik Atelier

"I create conversation pieces, and my mission is to elevate jewelry from simply existing as an accessory to becoming a wearable sculpture, an objet d'art."

Mia's studio "Oblik" means "shape/form" in Croatian, and the name is echoed in each created piece. Oblik Atelier is on a quest to define the most elegant and clean line and thrust that line through a three-dimensional metamorphosis.

Oblik Atelier jewelry marries traditional metalsmithing techniques to timeless designs via fold forming, fabricating, and forging techniques. Each piece is hand bent to conform to the body. Surfaces are smooth, architectural, sculptural, sinuous, voluptuous, and polished. Jewelry is made in brass and finished with gold or rhodium plating.

Mia started in jewelry at the School for Applied Arts and Design in Zagreb, Croatia. Upon resettling in the United States, she attended the Savannah College of Art and Design where she received a BFA in jewelry and metalsmithing.
