With a handful of sweet treasures carried over from last autumn — some finished, and some I needed to put final touches on — I didn't plan to make much new work!

But, to no surprise, my love of this season is too great not to follow where the inspiration leads...

This autumn I've been particularly drawn to the rich, earthy tones of changing leaves, along with a desire for some simpler pieces that can be worn every day, or paired with something a little more special! 

That inspiration took shape in three new designs — three earring styles and a necklace design I've been wanting to explore for quite some time...

THE PIECES

BIG FALLEN LEAVES

These leaves combine a little silver with a lot of warm brass — each leaf hangs about 2.25", is hand-textured and stamped, and hung from hand-fabricated ear wires I've soldered closed for safe keeping. They're incredibly lightweight for their size, too!

CITRINE NUGGETS

No two stones alike! Each pair features a natural, polished, citrine stone that (like leaves) are a wonderful study in natural variation! They absolutely glow when the light catches them.

TETHERED
| hand-knotted necklaces |

Each strand is full of natural gems I hand-knotted in an a-symmetrical pattern. I've started with just 5 different strands, to gauge interest. One end holds a hand fabricated sterling silver hook, and the other ends with larger chain links that allow you to adjust 16-18" for a closer wear — a fun opportunity to wear solo or pair with longer pieces!

Some of these designs may carry into holiday offerings, depending on interest.
