WEST Choker | 15" + 3" Extender | Sterling Silver Closure
Inspired by the name meaning and rooted in the spirit of movement, direction, and grounded beauty, the WEST choker radiates a bohemian-meets-warrior energy. This piece sits at the clavicle strong, sensual, and filled with the whispers of ancient hands and mineral memory.

Crafted with a sculptural eye, the necklace features a dynamic mix of rare and antique stones: large, ornamental forms balanced against micro-faceted precision cuts. The composition holds space for contrast weathered and polished, bold and delicate, earthy and celestial.

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.
