Of the Earth: A Journey from Raw to Refined

Introducing Of the Earth, a jewelry collection that celebrates the raw beauty of nature's minerals. This series is a heartfelt tribute to the earthy elegance of organic, free-form metals and crystals, all of which are lovingly handpicked and handcrafted by me. Each piece is a unique blend of mineral history and artistry, designed to reflect the natural beauty of the world’s most precious stones.

In Of the Earth, every jewel tells its own story. I personally source all of the minerals, unearthing them with care and attention before carefully cleaning and transforming them into wearable works of art. The first set in the collection features the stunning “cookies and cream” quartz, named for its distinct blend of light and dark hues. This unique stone is carefully selected from one site, ensuring that each piece, whether a main vein specimen or shard, has its own story to tell.

These necklaces are designed to be double-sided, showcasing the full spectrum of raw quartz’s natural textures and colors. The quartz not only preserves its rugged charm but is also refined into elegant, one-of-a-kind pieces that capture the timeless beauty of the earth. To complete the look, each piece is paired with a cordage made from vegan “faux” leather, ensuring a cruelty-free, stylish statement.

Some of the photographs feature the raw quartz alongside matching specimens, offering a glimpse into the unpolished form from which the jewelry is born. It’s a symbolic journey, transitioning from the untouched earth to a finished work of art.

Materials for this collection include raw Pennsylvania quartz varieties such as Cookies and Cream, Smoky, Clear, and coming soon Amethyst, along with copper and sterling silver metals, which complement the earthy rawness of the stones. It’s more than jewelry; it’s a reflection of the natural world transformed into wearable elegance.

Discover the magic of Of the Earth, where every piece carries a story that begins deep in the earth and ends with you.
