Meemware is a Vancouver-based brand that stands for Alternative Luxury. Alternative Luxury is about actively choosing smaller brands that engage in practices of creativity, care and consciousness. Our handmade pieces enable design-conscious choices to make everyday styling an aesthetically elevated experience.

Meemware is inspired by traditions of ornamentation and markings that empowered feminine beauty, identity and histories across different lands and eras. Our current jewelry and ceramics collection takes inspiration from the Japanese Kurinuki technique. We use this technique to encourage the idea of spontaneity and being “alive”, as the work focuses on the interactions and marks of the maker.
