Pieces of your soul
Finished by hand in small quantities
Human creation remains visible in every piece
I turned to metalsmithing after more than a decade working across music, art and corporate creative leadership. I wanted to make something slower, more personal, and lasting.
My grandmother was my biggest influence. She loved jewelry, but not in a precious way. Her pieces were mementos of the life she was building, and later became a way of passing her stories on to me. Years later, when I came to the bench myself, I realized she was my first jeweler.
I learned from a young age that jewelry could be armor. It could tell people who you were before you even opened your mouth. It could hold memories and emotions for you.
My grandmother passed away in the time since I began building this brand, and lineage stopped being an abstract concept and became my north star. Much of what I make now is a way of honoring the women who came before me and the one I am raising now.
The Curl collection came out of that. My hands were in my daughter's hair as much as they were on metal during my training, and it was only natural that one would influence the other.
The Curl Collection began at the intersection of two practices the designer was learning at the same time: caring for her young daughter's natural hair and the craft of metalsmithing. It was only natural that one would influence the other.
One day she began twisting small lengths of wire, over and over until she arrived at a single curl that immediately reminded her of her daughter's hair. That curl became the foundation of the entire collection, replicated, scaled, repeated and recontextualized in each piece.
Curl translates that familiar, organic shape into a material and context where it is less often encountered. Every piece is solid sterling, never hollow or filled, and the weight is part of the point: 3.3 grams for each Hoop, 17 for the Link Bracelet.
The Path Collection explores movement through experience, the ways we evolve as we travel through life, returning to ourselves changed by what we encounter along the way.
The Cuff and Ring begin with a continuous sculptural form: a curved oval that appears divided at first glance but reveals its continuity when turned, reflecting the feelings of separation and connection, departure and return. The Path Link Necklace centers three hammered oval links, representative of the others whose paths we intersect with along our own journeys.
Hammered surfaces preserve evidence of making, pressure, and lived experience. They honor the beauty in rough roads. Every piece is solid sterling, never hollow or filled: the Cuff is 32.2 grams at a 7 inch wrist, the Link Necklace 45.
