zin kao jewelry

I'm excited to be selling local Oakland designer Zina Kao's
jewelry.  Modern, unique necklaces, earrings and bracelets
available in sterling silver and gold vermeil.  LOVE the mixing
of metals - remember when you had to pick which metal you
were going to wear?  No longer - mix it up!

oh so pretty

Spring is in the air!  These pretty earrings arrived this week and they are so
lovely.  Local designer Madeline from Mi Vendimia has a great eye and I'm
excited to offer you her beautiful Spring Collection.  Her mix of cobochon
flowers, vintage filigree, semi-precious stones and sparkle are sure to get you
tons of compliments!

I love each of these DIY accessory projects from Martha Stewart.  What a
lovely way to update your next outfit!  Take something that has been in your
jewelry box and give it new life.  I think my favorite is the vintage brooch
necklace - I Die!

composed in shapes, organic medallions that are created from 

original carvings, and the new 3D collections which are created
