"We are a mother-daughter team (or, depending on who you talk to, a daughter-mother team) who design and create jewelry that ranges from whimsical to elegant. We like all kinds of jewelry—both to make and to wear. With playful jewelry, you can’t help smiling when you put it on, and the people you meet will be smiling, too. Elegant jewelry is a pleasure to own; and when you wear a beautiful piece of jewelry, it is like getting a sincere compliment: it makes you feel better about yourself, which shows up in your smile and outlook.
Creating our jewelry is fun, exhilarating, frustrating, and rewarding; we are usually behind and almost always motivated. Altogether, it’s a great way to spend our lives. We create jewelry because we love doing it -- the whole process makes us happy. We hope that when you own and wear our jewelry, some of that happiness and enjoyment is extended to your life.
We are lucky to live in Austin, Texas—a beautiful and creative environment—where we work out of our delightfully chaotic studio in Roberta’s home.
The two of us, along with our van Millie (named after one of our favorite tools, the rolling mill), travel to art shows in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. Check out our schedule. If you’d like to be notified of upcoming shows either by email or postcard, send us an email and let us know".
