She had gorgeous red hair. She used to be an professional dancer. Tony Bennet once sent his assistant to ask her out, and she turned him down, saying if he wanted to take her out, he could ask her himself.

She and my grandma would laugh for hours. I think they were the soulmate-kind-of-best-friends. She treated my mom like a daughter, so naturally she treated me like a granddaughter.

Jewelry Care & Info
Each piece is handcrafted and may include vintage or delicate materials. To preserve its quality and extend its life, I recommend the following:

• Avoid contact with water, sweat, perfumes, lotions, etc.
• Do not wear while showering, swimming, or exercising
• Keep it safe in the pouch it comes in to avoid tangling/scratches

Each piece comes in a pouch made from upcycled fabric, sewn by Mercedes in Yonkers – who I met at a church flea market – how very on brand of me;)

Please note: Due to the use of repurposed and vintage components, slight variations or signs of wear are part of the piece's character and charm. All sales are final.

Many of the beads and charms used are thrifted or vintage, and as such, their exact materials or origins may not be known. Each piece is made with care, but we cannot always guarantee specific compositions or metal content. If you have known metal allergies or sensitivities, please shop thoughtfully.

Thanks for loving pieces with a past — and keeping them out of landfills!
