Dean Harris is a jewelry designer who lives and works in New York City. He is a self-taught artist who has chosen the medium of metal to express himself. He has been fusing wire into organic shapes since 1999 when he discovered his hidden talent through a philosophical quest of inquiring why people adorn themselves. The answer to this question was simple: people inherently need to relate to an undiscerning world in a positive way. Dean believes that this can be accomplished through the self-expression of what we wear.

Knowing no boundary, his pieces consist primarily of 18K gold but often combine diverse materials such as mother-of-pearl, rare African woods, horn, or even aluminum and plastic. Rainbows of tourmalines and opals and exquisite diamonds from Belgium also form a rich palette of color that extends this beautiful aesthetic.

Dean Harris’ jewelry is reminiscent of nature. Natural forms flow from the heart to up-lift the human spirit.
