Braided Bow Necklaces from the Memento Collection. Comes in beautiful colors of teal, mustard and purple.

Latest custom project with repurposed gold and diamonds provided by client. This pendant was designed with a lily motif. The client’s daughter is named Lily.

Chain attaches seamlessly to pendant and to petal detail with diamonds.

I’ve been working on a custom design project for a client that wants me to create cremation pendant necklaces. I went to the cemetery for some motif ideas. Here are some beautiful textures and lovely quotes I found while on my outing. Stay tuned for the cremation pendants in a future post.

I love this quote so much. I feel it down to my bones…

From the same grave stone. It’s a sweet heart and fleur motif.

I should re-post this one for Valentine’s Day.

Another image from the same gravestone. I’m not usually into stars except the ones in the sky, but this one is beautiful with the leaf wreath.

A leaf shadow. Lovely.

As a metalsmith, I’m all about how surfaces change with age and weather conditions. Amazing.

I’m excited to be included as a designer in a very cool store, END OF CENTURY in NYC. Check them out. www.endofcenturynyc.com

Anchor & Conch Necklace
This is a 14k yellow gold custom piece I made as another “Push Present”. The client lives at the beach and that’s why I went with the nautical theme. I have added an additional anchor to this necklace since this photo. She’s had another baby. Now the conch rests in the middle with the two anchors hanging at different heights along the neckline. There’s also some diamonds added that are from a old piece of her mother in law’s jewelry. Definitely a Bespoke Service type of job- working closely with the client to customize her jewelry.

Anchor Detail
The baby’s initials and birthday are engraved on the reverse side. I’ve since added a tiny diamond inset in the disc.

Conch Detail
I just love this sweet little conch nestled in the cable chain. It originally rested underneath the clavicle. Now it’s centered on the necklace with two tiny baguette diamonds on either side.
