- I have been designing for over 12 years and collecting jewelry since I was a child. Lucky enough to have a grandmother who loved sharing her passion for jewelry with me sparked a passion in me as well. Whenever I would visit, she would bring me to her dresser filled with drawers of jewels, boxes inside and out, and spread it all out on the bed for me to try on as she told me the story about each piece. A charm bracelet she acquired in Venice with the charm from Heidelberg, where she came to visit me when I was born; Her Mississippi River pearl set into an art nouveau pendant; the bracelet Grandpa gave her with 12 gold love charms sent each month for a year; This is why I love jewelry. So, eventually, I had to open a shop in which to share my passion. Now I go to New York twice a year searching for new designers to add to my little shop. I still make a lot myself- the shop features about 50% of my work. My nails are always short and never painted but I wouldn't have it any other way! I love jewelry and everything about it. Enjoy the blog!
