I stepped away from the studio to celebrate the grand opening of the new Metal Museum—and what a fantastic space it is. Even the Memphis heat couldn’t dampen the pleasure of seeing remarkable work and reconnecting with dear friends. A very good day for art, metal and Memphis.

And with that, I’m signing off to enjoy the long holiday weekend. Hope you do the same.

Pink sapphires meet richly textured sterling silver hollowforms—lightweight, dimensional, and full of contrast. A little color, a little edge, and lots of surface.

Heart in Violet was created for this year’s Works of Heart auction benefiting the Memphis Child Advocacy Center.

A constellation of purple gemstones—fluorite, iolite, blue chalcedony, amethyst, charoite—circles a hand-cut Leland Blue heart, a symbol of protection, resilience, and care.

The bracelet is fully adjustable, finished with handcrafted links so it can be worn exactly as it feels best—because comfort and intention matter.

Bidding on this piece directly supports children and families when they need it most.

✨ With gratitude, always. ✨

As the year winds down, I want to pause and say thank you. Your support—through boutiques, galleries, museums, collaborations with fellow artists, and deeply personal commissions—has meant more than I can put into words. Every piece I create is made with the intention of quietly embellishing everyday life, and knowing my work becomes part of your daily rituals is a true gift.

I’m endlessly grateful to everyone who collected, shared, commissioned, encouraged, and believed in this work. You make it possible for me to continue creating jewelry that is thoughtful, expressive, and one of a kind.

✨ Looking ahead to 2026… exciting new work is already taking shape, and I can’t wait to share what’s coming. And as always, commissions are welcome—for those who want something deeply personal, highly individualized, and made just for them.

Wishing you a warm, beautiful holiday season and a luminous year ahead. 💫
