This piece brings up a lot of memories for me. Whi

This piece brings up a lot of memories for me. While I was traveling through India, we made our way to Jaipur- the Pink City, now one of my favorite places on Earth.
At the end of a wild day of exploring with our guide, we asked where we could buy quality gemstones. We were then taken to a dark alley, with a staircase that lead to a large, heavy door. We were escorted inside and as the room opened up, it was floor to ceiling in beautifully crafted mahogany wood with a crystal chandelier that hung above us. I knew right then that this was going to be interesting... we sat down and began our way through some of the most beautiful stones I have ever seen.
That day, I got THIS slice of tourmaline - that day was almost four years ago. When a stone means a lot to me, it takes time to find the right home. When I began my 2020 holiday collection, this was one of the stones that brought me a lot of inspiration and motivation. I couldn’t be more thrilled and more grateful that the ones who know hold this piece close to their hearts are two very dear friends of mine, @amyken22 and @iamdnoe • When a piece like this stays in the family, you know that it holds something powerful. Thank you both for loving, supporting and being apart of this journey with me for so long now •• you both mean the world to me 🌎 ⫸ » •• #familyheirlooms

I have been biting at the bit to share this piece

I have been biting at the bit to share this piece with you guys!! It’s been in the works for a few months now and I’m not only proud of it, I’m IN LOVE with it. When I was first contacted about creating this *Re-Creation* of Admiral Lord Nelson’s Diamond Chelengk, I obviously said yes. But I said yes before figuring out how I would make the enameled flowers, or set the crazy amount of stones It had, or how working with white gold would go for the first time - I didn’t care, I knew I would figure it out because I wanted to take this on, and I did. I reached out to friends, collected information about the history of this iconic piece, scanned the internet for all the necessary quirks involved and found my way. Thanks to an awesome jeweler friend of mine, I learned about UV enamel, which is similar to real glass enamel in some way and very different in other ways - I learned how to work with white gold through trial and error, even though the cost of this materials doesn’t allow for a lot of error, and I set every single stone (over 70 of them) with a nervous but calm breath • Whoop whoop! is really all that comes to mind when looking at the completion of this beauty. Here is a little history of the iconic, Lord Admiral Nelson’s Diamond Chelengk ⫸»•

“Admiral Lord Nelson’s diamond Chelengk is one of the most famous and iconic jewels in British history. Presented to Nelson by the Sultan Selim III of Turkey after the Battle of the Nile in 1798, the jewel had thirteen diamond rays to represent the French ships captured or destroyed at the action. A central diamond star on the jewel was powered by clockwork to rotate in wear. Nelson wore the Chelengk on his hat like a turban jewel, sparking a fashion craze for similar jewels in England. The jewel became his trademark to be endlessly copied in portraits and busts to this day. After Trafalgar, the Chelengk was inherited by Nelson’s family and worn at the Court of Queen Victoria. Sold at auction in 1895 it eventually found its way to the newly opened National Maritime Museum in Greenwich where it was a star exhibit. In 1951 the jewel was stolen in a daring raid by an infamous cat-burglar and lost forever.” -Martyn Downer

Six pendants for six women •• making family he

Six pendants for six women •• making family heirlooms like this is what keeps me excited about what I do • Each pendant features a garnet from a family ring and pendant that was probably created some time in the late 1800s, early 1900s • it was fascinating to see that each garnet was hand cut and had unique facets and shapes to them •• not one was “perfect” and that made them even better •• Thank you @melaniecritelli for entrusting me to create such a unique collection for your family of amazing women •• You have been a supporter of mine on several occasions and your love and loyalty mean the world 🌎 • What are we going to create next!? ♥️

Well guys, first post of 2021 • Happy New Year!!

Well guys, first post of 2021 • Happy New Year!! It’s been a relaxing-ish couple of weeks, spent with my lil family. It’s always an insane time of year for us from September through the new year, working non stop, hustling day and night (literally) and trying to keep all those ducks in a somewhat organized row •• Let me just say how incredibly grateful I am to have that kind of insanity in my life. I wouldn’t be able to do what I do without the support of you all. It’s been a wild year for everyone; stressful, eye opening, mind altering, devastating, hopeful. A new year isn’t going to change our current situation but it does give us a opportunity to step into this year with more intention, depth and a greater understanding and compassion for those around us in our local and global communities. I look forward to becoming more grounded, more thoughtful, more patient and hopefully get some traveling in •• I wish you all the same and even more as we step through another years portal••What are you taking with you and what are you leaving in 2020? 🤎🤍🤎
