Two hearts intertwined… what could be more romantic? Each of these necklaces is made by hand, and each one has the uniqueness to show it. The hearts are hand-shaped and cast in bronze, locked together in kiln fire. The hearts are free-moving like links in a chain on the necklace. Expect them to move and flow within each other, not stay stationary, as is the nature of love. And expect the hearts to not be completely identical to each other. The chains are 14k gold-filled, so the necklace is hypoallergenic. Folks with nickel allergies are safe here! The whole necklace measures about 17.5 inches. Get it here.

My Birthstone Cluster Collection was inspired by nature and the gorgeously imperfect way the world’s gemstones come to us before they’re cut, set and made to look like something completely otherworldly. I cast these stones in clear resin, letting them fall from my fingertips into the liquid wherever they land. Over several days, it hardens into a little cluster of gemstones that look like they’re bursting forth. Glowing peridots, moody sapphires, rich rubies, warm citrine crystals… all the colors of the birthstone rainbow. Get yours here.

Say what you wanna say, with custom stamped jewelry made by hand... Up to 15 characters on brass or aluminum. A shorter phrase will go on a 1 inch bar unless specified to prevent empty space. 1 1/2 inch bar shown in main photo. Get your custom bar necklace here.

Sometimes gorgeously simple isn’t as simple as it seems. These monogram initial necklaces are each made from hand-cast bronze and fired in a kiln. Each piece is uniquely handmade. The chain is an elegant paper-clip style chain that’s 14k gold-filled, so it’s hypoallergenic. Chains are 18 inches long, but if you’d prefer a longer necklace you can add an extender here. Because each necklace is handmade to order, please expect 2-4 days before they ship. Get your custom monogram hexagon necklace here.

Doves are symbols of love and peace, often depicted carrying olive branches or tenderly nuzzling each other. They’re expert messengers, domesticated more than 5,000 years ago for correspondence and companionship. Across cultures, doves have symbolized femininity, motherhood and the moon. They’re sacred in Islam and Christianity; legend says that Muhammad trained doves, and the devil in Christianity can shapeshift into many forms except the dove. Our Dove Hoop Earrings feature a pair of doves, one with wings spread and the other at rest. Each earring measures approximately 1.5 inches across. Dove Earrings are available in solid cast bronze or solid sterling silver. Both styles are free of nickel. Each pair of dove earrings comes on a decorate card back with the story of doves.

The Flamingo, perched precariously on one leg in the shallow water, reminds us to find balance in our own lives. Its whimsical pink coloring makes it stand out among other birds, reminding us to be ourselves, however different we may appear. And its curved neck shapes one half of a heart, forming a whole when it pairs with a mate, which it attracts with its flamboyant dance moves. Our Flamingo Necklace features a pair of flamingos touching beaks to form a heart shape and is topped with two beads of pink rhodochrosite to add a pop of flamingo pink. This necklace is available as a solid bronze pendant on a 14k gold-filled chain or a sterling silver pendant on a sterling silver chain. Necklaces measure approximately 18 inches and can be fastened on any link of the chain, so they may be worn slightly shorter if you prefer. If you’d prefer a longer chain, you may add an extender here. Both styles are free of nickel and come on a decorative card back telling the significance of the flamingo.

This clever heart necklace is a throwback to the romantic symbolism of Celtic knots, made with just one rope, and the playful macramé knot work made popular in the 1970s (inspired by 13th Century Arab weaving and passed down over centuries until it blew up massively in the ‘70s). The rope heart pendant was made using a single piece of rope, then cast in bronze. It’s a substantial, meaningful piece of handmade jewelry that would make a perfect Valentine’s Day, anniversary or wedding gift for a love bird. Get your Macrame Heart Necklace here.

This catacomb cuff is a substantial piece of solid bronze that is slightly sizable; you can go ahead and give it a very strong tug at each end to widen it or a very firm push at each end to make it smaller. As with all cuffs, we recommend getting it to the size you prefer then wriggling it on and off. The inside measurements of the cuff from end to end are approximately 6 inches not including the opening. If you like the catacomb bracelet, be sure to check out our skull necklace with mobile jaw.
