When Style Aids Authenticity

Style and adornment are a way to embolden and announce your interiority to the outside world. So, let's all be authentic. Let's all greet the world with kindness. Embrace who you are and who you strive to be. 

Most of the people we work with come to us at a time of engagement, marriage or anniversary: they're affirming and reaffirming their commitment to each other, the value of good Earth citizenship, and the lifecycle of matter. 

But there isn't any reason to save that celebration for just a romantic occasion.

Consider, adorning your hand with a reminder of the things you believe.

Consider, giving your best friend a birthday present that means something special.

Consider, passing on a talisman of earth to a family member, a tree to the family tree.

We believe that we make objects that mean something, out of materials that are sustainable. By wearing one of our rings, you can make your own meaning. Why wait to have or give that?

Here are two new rings that we love, that work perfectly no matter the purpose.

In real life, this beauty shimmers like we imagine a mermaid might. Or, it is the silver of a spring, or the sweet ethereal mist of twilight. Wearing a ring like this inserts some magic dreaminess into the everyday.

This one by design uses contrast and as a result feels uber-contemporary. Like dominoes or like black-and-white cookies, the colors work together strikingly. In it is confidence, a 3"-high newspaper headline, strength and force and elegance all at once.

Let our work be one small step toward matching your insides to your outsides. May you find pleasure therein.  

Happy Wednesday!
