RESPONSIBLY MADE

Each piece is entirely made by hand in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire. I am a one woman show and do everything from designing, metal work, lapidary stone cutting, and photography in my studio. I use reclaimed precious metals and ethically sourced gemstones. Most of the gemstones used are mined right here in North America. 

ABOUT THE ARTIST

I make powerful jewelry that gives the wearer a feeling of comfort and confidence. My muse; the mountains, lakes, and flora, constantly teach me the power of simplicity. The reflection of birds flying across a still lake. The zig zag pattern of snowy mountain peaks. The patterns of leaves and petals. I highlight nature’s perfect curation of simplicity, repetition, and texture into my jewelry designs. 

I am intrigued by the intimacy of jewelry making; from working closely with metal and stone, to the connection of the piece and the client. Each piece is made with careful consideration of design and wearability. Born and raised in the countryside of New England, I am inspired by the constant exposure to the wilderness throughout my upbringing. My connection to nature combined with my love of travel is the burning fuel that drives my bold yet simple designs.

JEWELRY CARE

All jewelry can be cleaned with a standard jewelers cloth or warm water and mild soap. It is important to treat all of your jewelry with special care. I recommend keeping each piece in a separate small plastic bag to prevent it from tarnishing or getting scratched. A soft bristle tooth brush is great for cleaning hard to reach areas like behind small gemstones. Please remove jewelry before exercising, swimming, and bathing to ensure long lasting wear.

Each piece is made entirely by hand and often custom made to order so please allow 2-6 weeks for production time. Your order will ship as soon as it is completed and you will receive an email with the tracking information. If you would like a rush order, please contact me to make arrangements.
