Nature Walk Collection, Mixed Metals

These textures, shapes and colors are pulled directly from nature to help you feel more connected in this crazy, fast-paced world of ours. In each necklace, elements derived from leaves, branches, moss and coral are clustered together to create a wearable collage of organic goodness. Layers of colorful patinas bring the textures to life, and I have such fun dipping and splattering the colors to make each element different from any other. Worried about the patinas rubbing off or the metals tarnishing? Don’t be! I coat each piece in at least two layers weatherproof lacquer, plus a coating of museum-quality preservation wax. The thorough buffing that follows brings a rick depth to each color combination that can’t be matched through mass-production.

From the lightweight, ultra-wearable Morning Stroll Necklace to the long, jangling statement piece that is the Shore to Forest Necklace, there’s something for every nature enthusiast in this collection. Earrings range from simple geometric shapes bearing the same organic textures, to showy sets with dangling beads for extra pizzazz. The earrings in this collection hang from surgical steel earwires, which are kind to most ears.

The Nature Walk Collection is the perfect way to recognize someone special, especially if that someone is you! Go ahead. You deserve to feel this connected.

Nature Walk Collection, Silver

Your jewelry will connect you with nature like never before when you wear the Nature Walk Collection in silver. Each delicately veined leaf is created from the real thing. I collect molds from trees, bushes, herbs and flowers everywhere I go. Green bean leaves from my best friend’s garden, butterfly bush leaves from my mother-in-law’s flower bed, and petunia leaves from my very own yard are featured prominently in this collection. Each leaf shimmers with iridescent color and ripples with a free-flowing shape borrowed directly from nature.

The popular collection also includes my top-seller, the carved birdhouse. A tiny bird is perched at the door of each rustic little avian hideaway. This little work of art is so lightweight and easy to wear, you’ll forget you have it on until someone notices and compliments your jewelry.

Leaves and birdhouses are hand crafted in fine silver. Earwires, chains and connectors are sterling silver.

Coral Collection, Silver

Take the ocean breeze with you and wear a little piece of the beach every day with the Coral Collection in silver. On a family beach vacation, my sweet little niece picked up several pieces of coral on a treasure-hunt. One of those pieces yielded a magical texture that is both mysterious and organic. This one-of-a-kind texture has become a cornerstone of my designs. When used in simple geometric shapes, this coral texture takes on a modern, graphic feel. The coral texture just loves patina. More than any other I’ve created, the coral texture shows off shimmering shades of iridescent color from pinks and purples to blues and greens.

The coral collection in silver is wonderfully easy to wear because it’s lightweight and works well in both casual situations and on dressed up days. Each coral component is hand crafted in fine silver. Earwires and chains are sterling silver.
