Hommage à la Perle

It all starts small, like a grain of sand…

This collection is dear to my heart. The pearl is one of my favorite gems, to me it symbolizes creation. I created this collection back in 2005, and showcased it at my friends Tea House. Who knew it would become one of my core collections.

A pearl starts as a small grain of sand or a small parasite, then oyster the releases a substance known as nacre, which covers the irritant. Layers & layers of nacre will eventually cover the object and turn it into a unique gem, a pearl.

This collection uses unique shapes and colors. Each pearl has a unique characteristic, just like us. You will see shapes that are not common in most fine jewelry.
