Mimi Epstein Testen
Jewelry, Wine Bottle Stoppers, Purse Hangers & Sun catchers

“I love color,” says jewelry designer Mimi Testen. Her line of jewelry reflects that passion. 

Testen is the owner of Mimi Testen Designs, a jewelry business she has run from her home since 2003. In addition to selling the work of other jewelry artists, she creates her own necklaces, earrings, bracelets, wine bottle stoppers and purse holders, most containing one of her most favorite materials, dichroic glass.  Dichroic glass- from the Greek meaning "two colors" - consists of multiple micro-layers pf metal oxcides that give glass optical properties.  The smooth exterior of the glass shelters these textured, multi-colored layers, creating a shimmering color effect when examined at different angles.

Mimi strives for innovation in the one-of-a-kind pieces.  She has started using magnetic clasps on necklaces to accommodate customers who may have artherutis or other issues that make fastening a clasp tricky.  She credits her father for her artistic sensibility and draws inspiration from her favorite artists - impressionists Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir.Edgar Degas and Vincent van Gogh.  Testen’s creative spark influences all aspects of her life, from jewelry to spirituality.
