Sophie




Named after my darling niece. As everyone knows, the job of an aunt is to push parental boundaries. Therefore, I made similar earrings for my niece even though her mother forbade dangly earrings. Sophie was permitted to wear the earrings only because her Aunt Natalie made them for her. Mission accomplished. Czech glass, foiled glass, Swarovski crystal, Swarovski pearl, hematite, 4mm ball posts and sterling silver. Also in pink/pearl. $10.

Georgiana




Named after the title character in The Duchess. This was one of my first designs and the decadence of it reminded me of Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire. This design comes in several hues, including garden, contrast, blush, velvet, ice and coral. Made with solid sterling silver, Swarovski crystals, pearls, bali silver, Czech glass, rose quartz, amethyst, hematite, snowflake obsidian, garnet, watermelon quartz, and several other elements. $40.

Adonna



Named after my maternal grandmother. She commissioned a custom pair of earrings to match a new shirt and they turned out so well, I decided to make more. I also drew inspiration from the acrylic grape doorstop she uses at her house. Made with Czech picasso glass, Swarovski crystal, bali silver and sterling silver. Also in turquoise and opaque red. $25 for the earrings; $35 for the necklace; $40 for the bracelet.
