Jewelry inspired by the people who pick us up, hold us close, and bind us together.
This collection is a tribute to the ones we can’t imagine life without — the steady friends, the chosen family, the quiet anchors, and the loud cheerleaders. The people who show up, walk beside us, and remind us of our own brilliance. Whether we’re bound by blood or simply by love, these are the ones who feel like home.
The Kith & Kin Collection features six new designs, each one linked — literally and symbolically — to connection. Created during a time when small businesses like ours are navigating challenge and change, this collection is rooted in resilience and community. These pieces are made to be shared, stacked, gifted, or held close. They’re soft armor, love notes, and tiny testaments to togetherness. I'm not much of a necklace gal myself, but I find myself constantly reaching for the Surface Necklace — it's one of my favorite pieces. That design was actually the catalyst for this entire collection.
Crafted in celebration of the bonds that make us — and keep us — this collection arrives just in time for Mother’s Day, but its message reaches far beyond. Read more in my latest blog about this launch.
Because it takes a village — and this one’s for yours.

These six new designs celebrate connection and the bonds that keep us going. These new designs [...]
