The most inspiring and consistent thing in my life has always been my love of travel and other cultures. My strongest memories are from the first books I read when I was a young child of foreign lands. Those books spurred a strong desire in me to explore the world with an open mind and heart. When Emily came to me and wanted to collaborate the first thing I could think of was creating an earring inspired by my love of other cultures and the people who make them so unique and special. My favorite piece of jewelry was a beautiful vintage Fulani earring that had broken years ago. I wanted to recreate that piece in honor of the strong women who designed them and maintain the pride and dignity with which they had. I hope you love the pieces as much as we do. 💛
