A Bold New Collection: Geometric Designs and Vibrant Gemstones
This season, I’m thrilled to introduce a collection that brings together two of my favorite design elements - bold geometric shapes and vibrant, saturated gemstones. Each piece in this new collection was created with the intention of highlighting the stunning natural beauty of the stones, and I’m excited to finally share these designs with you.
Many of the gemstones featured in this collection were sourced from Tatum Gems, one of my trusted ethical suppliers. I’ve worked with them for years and am always in awe of the quality and uniqueness of their stones. The pink spinel, green tourmaline, watermelon tourmaline, and tanzanite in this collection are all from Tatum, while the remaining gemstones came from other ethically responsible sources I deeply respect. These gemstones, with their rich colors and incredible clarity, inspired me to create designs that would enhance their natural beauty and timeless appeal.

Geometric Shapes and Color: The Heart of This Collection
The common thread running through this collection is the combination of geometric shapes and vibrant, jewel-toned stones. I’ve always been drawn to clean lines and modern silhouettes, and these gemstones lend themselves beautifully to that aesthetic. My goal with each piece is to strike a balance between the boldness of geometric shapes and the organic elegance of the gemstones. I wanted the designs to feel fresh and contemporary while still being versatile enough to become heirlooms - pieces that could be gifted, loved, and passed down through generations.
One of my favorite pieces from this collection is the tanzanite ring. Tanzanite has always been a special stone for me, and this particular piece is absolutely mesmerizing. The way the stone catches the light is magical—it has a deep, almost electric blue color that’s impossible to resist. The ring is a nod to my Parenthetical collection from earlier this spring, with its clean lines and an asscher-cut stone that feels both modern and timeless.
The geometric sapphire ring, with its striking diamond baguette accent, is another standout in this collection. The sapphire, sourced from Australia, has beautiful striations that add depth and texture to the piece. I designed the setting to really highlight these natural characteristics, allowing the stone’s unique qualities to shine. It pairs beautifully with my long, handmade Risoni Chains, creating a layered look that’s perfect for any occasion - especially those holiday parties we all look forward to.
Tourmaline and Spinel: Gems of Vibrant Color
This collection also features some of my favorite gemstones - green tourmaline and pink spinel - both of which hold a special place in my heart. Green tourmaline, with its vivid, almost surreal reflection of light, adds a bold pop of color to any outfit. It’s one of those stones that feels alive when you wear it, and the necklace I created using this stone is truly a knockout.
As for the pink spinel, it’s such a versatile gemstone. Its soft, rosy hue makes it a natural fit for any skin tone, and I love how it can add a touch of femininity to more structured, geometric designs. I find that pink spinel often flies under the radar, but its brilliance and durability make it one of the most exciting stones to work with.
The watermelon tourmaline also makes an appearance in this collection, and it’s always a crowd favorite. The playful color gradient of watermelon tourmaline - green on the outside with a pink center - brings a whimsical, joyful energy to any piece. I love incorporating it into designs that feel fresh and fun, perfect for adding a little personality to your jewelry collection.

Ethical Sourcing and Craftsmanship
One of the things I’m most proud of as a designer is my commitment to ethical sourcing. I believe that the beauty of a gemstone is even greater when it aligns with values of sustainability and responsible craftsmanship. That’s why I work closely with suppliers like Tatum Gems, who are as passionate about ethically sourced gemstones as I am. Each stone is hand-selected for its quality and uniqueness, and I take great care in ensuring that my materials reflect my values.
These gemstones aren’t just beautiful; they tell a story of careful sourcing and mindful design. When you purchase a piece from this collection, you’re not just buying jewelry - you’re investing in something made with intention and integrity, designed to last a lifetime.
A Perfect Match for the Holiday Season
This collection couldn’t have come at a better time, with the holiday season just around the corner. I’ve always believed that jewel tones are the perfect palette for holiday celebrations, and the rich colors in this collection fit the bill perfectly. Whether you’re attending a holiday party, celebrating New Year’s Eve, or just looking for something special to gift a loved one, these pieces are sure to make a statement.
My 14K Gold Curved Bangles are an elegant companion to any glass of champagne or bourbon neat, while the sapphire or tourmaline necklaces pair beautifully with one of my long chains for a layered look that’s both chic and modern. And if you’re looking to make a bold statement, the tanzanite ring or geometric sapphire ring will undoubtedly turn heads.
Important Dates for Holiday Orders
As we approach the holidays, I want to make sure you have everything you need to place your orders in time for gift-giving. The last day to order one of these pieces for ring sizing is Monday, November 25th. For ready-to-ship pieces, the deadline is Tuesday, December 17th, and I highly recommend using UPS 2-Day or Next Day Air to ensure your pieces arrive in time.
I’m so excited to share this collection with you, and I can’t wait to see which pieces speak to you. Whether you’re treating yourself or looking for the perfect gift, I’m confident you’ll find something truly special in this collection.
