The stones make a singular partnership, chosen for their shape and balance. Each gem is raw, natural, hand-cut and polished minimally to keep the integrity of the minerals. The merging of these fine details produce a distinctive set.
Measurements (approximated):1.5" long dangle (I can make them shorter or longer, convo me).
Every design is accompanied by a list. The list encompasses history, as well as scientific details, and the metaphysical healing qualities inherent to the metals, gems & beads on your piece.
Unique gift packaging! Most accessory and jewelry items are shipped securely inside our signature, keepsake storage satchel that is made with inimitable, repurposed materials. The current is an amalgamation of antique designer drawings, antique Indian sari, repurposed past season interior design fabric swatch books & colorful transparent lighting gels. This satchel will help protect your design from damaging heat and light.
Inspiration for this and much of my work is generated from an ethnological appreciation of different cultures. My design esthetic is influenced by primitive tribal jewelry and artifacts' as tiles, pottery, textiles, garments, and the colors and hues within all of them. I relish the ornate details within ancient weaponry and armor and am fortified by history of all genres. I find foods and herbs from different lifestyles throughout the world endlessly stimulating. I'm encouraged everyday by family, music, architecture, nature, and the ecosystems within.
One of my favorite things to do is to go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC with my amazing son. He now has a love and fondness for the museum experience that is growing close to his mommy's.
