    Each design is accompanied by a digital checklist, known as the Self-Love Toolkit (SLTK), which includes historical context, scientific details, and the rumored metaphysical healing qualities associated with the precious metals, gems, and crystals used in your piece.

    All our smaller accessory and jewelry items are securely shipped within the Alexandria Black keepsake storage satchel. This petite satchel is crafted from inimitable 100% repurposed materials, and authenticated with a 14K 14/20 gold filled or sterling silver tag. This distinctive pouch serves as a protective shield, guarding the sensitive minerals comprising my creations from potentially damaging heat and light. For optimal care, please store your items in the satchel or in a cool, dark location.

    The current satchel is a blend of antique Metropolitan Opera programs or technical design drawings, antique Indian saris, repurposed past-season interior design fabric swatches, and vibrant transparent lighting gels.

    As a lover of fragrance and natural oils from flowers and plants, I take pleasure in sharing my seasonal aromatherapy blend with you as a special gift.

    The foundation of my creative endeavors is rooted in an ethnological admiration for diverse cultures. My design sensibility draws inspiration from the primitive allure of tribal jewelry and artifacts, encompassing elements such as tiles, pottery, textiles, garments, and the rich spectrum of colors embedded in them. Intricate details found in ancient weaponry and armor captivate me, fortifying my connection to history across various genres.

    The global tapestry of flavors and herbs from different lifestyles serves as an endless wellspring of stimulation for my creative process. Each day, I am fueled by the influences of family, music, architecture, nature, and the intricate ecosystems that surround us.

    A cherished pastime involves visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC, a tradition shared with my incredible son. Witnessing his growing appreciation for the museum experience brings us closer together.

    Thank you for allowing me to share my creative journey with you!
