About Us
Our Team
Marelé Moolman, driven by her passion for creating unique pieces and wanting to explore new horizons joined the workshop of David Bolding in 2005 as assistant manager and in 2007 freeRange JEWELS™ came into being as a result of Marele’s desire to keep her own creative energy vibrating.
‘I get lyrical when it comes to a well-made piece of jewellery in a style that pushes the boundaries, a perfectly balanced design that shouts and whispers at the same time-jewellery that tells you something for which there are no words. I am fascinated by how the creative mind responds to triggers, how it does not deliver when I want it to, but overwhelms me with possibilities when I least expect it!’ – Marelé Moolman
