Our Balance chain scaled down to the wrist, set with olive green CZ. Three larger links, then a run of smaller delicate ones, that rhythm is what gives the chain its movement, and the stones sit into it so they catch light with every turn of your hand. Each one is a 4mm round, faceted to throw light back at you. On the wrist, where you actually see your own jewelry, that flicker earns its place.
Olive is green without shouting. Deep enough to be a real color, muted enough to settle against warm gold rather than compete with it.
Made completely from 14k gold filled, a durable finish that won't change color or cause irritation, and a safer choice for sensitive skin. Built for daily wear, not for the box.
Adjustable from 6.5 to 7.5 inches with an extender for a comfortable fit. If you need a smaller or larger size, just leave your wrist measurement in a note at checkout and we'll adjust the closing range so the spacing is exactly right for you, tighter or looser, however you like to wear it.

14k Gold Filled
Gold filled is not plating. A thick layer of solid 14k gold is bonded to a jeweler's brass core under heat and pressure, so the piece carries about 100 times more gold than a thin flash plate. That is why it holds its color through daily wear instead of rubbing thin at the edges.
925 Sterling Silver
Solid sterling, bright and cool against the skin. I also offer an oxidized finish, a soft blackened patina that deepens the look of a stack and sits beautifully next to your gold pieces.
Signature Crystals
This is the part I also make by hand. Semi-precious gemstones, real dried botanicals, and Swarovski crystals, arranged one at a time and sealed under UV stable resin that stays glass-clear rather than yellowing. Because the elements are natural, no two are ever exactly alike.
Made in My Florida Studio
I make every piece to order in my studio here in Florida. Small differences in flower placement, stone color, or the depth of a crystal are part of the design, not a flaw.
Made for Sensitive Ears and Skin
My fashion studs use surgical steel posts and backs, chosen for ears that react to almost everything else.
Artisan Frames (Pendants and Earrings)
The statement frames are lead free and nickel free brass, finished with a heavy gold plate for a rich, high-shine luster.

Gold filled, vermeil, plated: what's the difference?
It all comes down to how much real gold you're wearing.
Gold plated
A thin film of gold over brass or copper. It can wear through with everyday wear.
Gold vermeil
Gold over sterling silver, at least 2.5 microns thick. Better than plating, still a coating.
14k gold filledWhat you get
A thick layer of solid 14k gold bonded to a brass core. About 100 times more gold than plating, so it holds its color through daily wear.
Gold layers enlarged so you can see the difference.
