Designer's Note:

Perfectly dainty, light and comfortable huggies that you'll never want to take off. And because its back piece hugs the ear and clicks in to the post for secure daily wear, you will not have to. Named Marquita because of their marquise-inspired shape, this style features oculus open space sprinkled with Montana sapphires that sparkle against the hammered gold. 

This piece was designed for the Reciprocity Exhibition at New York City Jewelry Week 2024.

• Artist statement on the Reciprocity Rivers Collection: Sometimes we feel like we are powerless to create change, as if we are only a drop in the ocean. But when we collaborate, our single drops combine, creating rivers that flow into oceans of possibility. Each blue Montana sapphire represents the water drops that come together on these pieces of set textured gold, whose hammer-strikes symbolize the ripples of a river. They evoke the flowing movement of water as well as the movement of responsible jewelry. These jewels are tokens of hope and reminders of the power that lies within each of us.
