Sports Jewellery from Michele's Jewellers

Micheles love for Sport Jewellery comes from her family background and from her own sporting background ... but also the influences of friends and tragedy, have enabled Michele to put her creative skills into a jewellery line so unique and with such history and emotion.

Micheles selection of Snow jewellery was designed at a time when no-one could have thought jewellery could be part of the rebuilding of the Thredbo Landslide disaster.

In the July of 1997 and after the 5th day of reality that Mike and Mimi Sodergren were not alive, Friends who lost Mike and other colleagues (Mike was head of Snow Sports School and Mimi in charge of Women's programmes), decided to set and form the Sodergren Foundation.

Michele was invited to voluntarily make a sample Sodergren Ski brooch/badge in respect of Mike, Mimi and the lost lives. The badges are now a product available for sale at most Thredbo fundraiser events to promote and fund young Australians in Snow Skiing education.

"I was very proud to be able to use my ability to help the foundation. I have felt very much part of the rebuilding of Thredbo in some little way .. my family was at Thredbo at the time of the landslide." .... Michele

The 18 prong Snowflake piece is proudly made in respect of the 18 lives lost, this is available throughout the range.

Micheles Snow jewellery will always be a reflection of her love for Thredbo and the memory of all 18 lives lost.

The picture here is of the badge available, it is a replica of the first designed skiis used. You will find a set of these in wood, hanging in the Thredbo Hotel Alpine Reception.

If you wish to purchase a badge in Silver or Gold and support the Australian Sports Foundation (tax deductible), they are available at Friday Flat Snow Sport Office,Thredbo.
