Melanie Abrantes Designs

Melanie Abrantes Designs is a producer of handcrafted, heirloom objects based in the Bay Area of California in the USA. Founder Melanie Abrantes believes that in order to create something beautiful, you have to get your hands dirty. She is a Filipina and Portuguese-Brazilian designer and artist. She grew up in Houston, Texas, and moved to California in 2008 to study Product Design at Otis College of Art and Design. She founded her company in 2013 when she observed a growing market for handmade goods in America.

Working with a variety of unique materials, Melanie strives to create products of the highest quality that are equally beautiful and functional. Through the technique of lathing, she turns simple pieces of solid wood and cork into one-of-a-kind bowls, plates, cups and stands. Her passion for woodworking originates from the simple fact that every piece is unique as the material it is made from.

Time in the studio is dedicated to researching, testing and adapting the product to its user, resulting in a simple, yet unique object of the highest quality. Moving forward, Melanie plans to broaden her line to include furniture and lighting, maintaining her dedication to handmade.
