The DAYTON earrings are rich with intention and subtle power. Combining the grounded depth of Lapis Lazuli with earthy bauxite disks and antique brass charms, these are tiny talismans of healing and presence. Named for the energy of roots and resilience, each pair is accented with petite faceted Pyrite and finished with modern, hand-forged paddle pins. Worn by Alison Krauss on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and PBS News, these earrings carry the sound of soul, story, and song.

• A ¾" drop makes these earrings dainty enough for everyday wear yet substantial in meaning and impact.
• Designed to complement layered necklaces or speak softly on their own, the DAYTON pairs beautifully with the CADEN Lariat or any piece from your collection.
• Lightweight, secure, and versatile ideal for those who favor a low-key shimmer with deep resonance.

Each Alexandria Black piece is a reverent expression of natural history and cultural legacy crafted from gemstones, crystals, fine metals, leather, feathers, bark, and antique textiles. Inspired by the primitive elegance of tribal adornment, ceremonial tools, ancient armor, and sacred ritual objects, these accessories carry the essence of protection, identity, and memory.

My creative process is rooted in an ethnological admiration for global cultures, and deeply informed by the textures of pottery, textiles, and natural materials. Fragrance is part of that ritual; each piece is accompanied by a seasonal aromatherapy blend, a sensory gift to ground your experience. Each smaller jewelry and accessory item is securely shipped within the Alexandria Black keepsake satchel - crafted entirely from repurposed materials like antique Metropolitan Opera programs, modern design drawings, Indian saris, past-season design swatches, and lighting gels.

Influenced daily by music, architecture, nature, and the magic of art; these designs are both personal and timeless. They are heirlooms in motion, meant to be worn with intention and passed on with love.
