Styling Tips:
* Use a singular bold charm for a minimalist look, or tell a full story with layered symbols.
* Layer your necklace with other necklaces, try AXB finely beaded chokers, gold chains, or pendants.
* Swap charms seasonally or to match your mood, these interchangeable styles are made for versatility.
* Pair with longer necklaces to create an effortless, high-to-low layer.
* Use a teardrop “fixed build” long necklace for combining many charms for a relaxed, bohemian vibe.
* Stack alongside other AXB bracelets to balance weight and texture, try pairing with raw crystal stretch styles or gold bangles.

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.
