excited about...black spot books!

how sweet;  the most personal of gifts, a tiny journal to wear over your heart



wear one, wear several.

antique victorian lace cast into a ring

antique gun trigger necklace  (gun used in a train robbery!)

Margaux Kent, an artist from Philadelphia, makes these amazing little books with thick, hand-torn drawing paper covered in worn leather sourced from ripped old chairs from Holland; boots, shoes and bags collected from all across the country..She has a story behind every piece she makes, which made me want to carry this lovely line of jewelry in our newest store.  I love jewelry with soul..

Suzan Rezac




Suzan, a friend and brilliant metalsmith, created these one of a kind earrings from sawing a design into sterling sheet then adhering 24k gold foil onto the design. They are about 2.5" in diameter. I think I'll have a mild panic attack if they sell!

Jessica Kagan Cushman




I love Jessica's scrimshaw bracelets. When in New York in August for the accessories circuit, I got to meet her and purchase her resin version of these ivory bracelets. We now have them in store and customers are earing them up!

Pippa Small




Pippa Small is an organic jeweler with a touch of whimsy in all her designs. A jeweler who uses minimal techniques yet orchestrates them in a striking, bold manner. I love that she always uses high karat gold and tumbled, natural looking stones. I would love to own a piece from her!
