ABOUT


NEW REFINED BASICS is a line of modern jewelry with a minimalist design and is intended to be worn often and adored. 

NRB was established in 2012 by Natalie Barela. Jewelry is an avenue to further the exploration of metalwork and small sculpture. Each piece offers the opportunity to work closely with the materials which result in jewelry that is inherently unique because of its handcrafted process.  The majority of pieces are hand-forged and assembled by using hammered cold connections. No two pieces are exactly the same and each piece is thoughtfully made and constructed. 

All jewelry is made to order in Portland, Oregon.
