OWNER, CREATIVE DIRECTOR

By age six I was the “keeper of the treasure”...my beloved Grandmother’s cream jewelry box, which held within it a plethora of vintage and antique jewels; treasures of "the queen" and I held court.

 

There were hand-painted brooches, pearls, colored stones, glass beads, and charm bracelets. A diamond necklace-a vessel of love from my Grandfather. I was certain there was nothing else like those treasures in the world and I became enamored with jewelry, especially those pieces from another time and place.

 

By age 14, I had a beautiful collection of vintage brooches and Czech glass necklaces. Old Italian Micromosaics and vesta cases I adored. I fell in love with rosaries, searching for those once owned. They seemed so precious, as I imagined the hands that once held those beads; the prayers lifted up, and the faith held within the heart. 

 

Many years later, after living in Eastern Europe and traveling around the world, I am still the keeper of the treasure. Now I share with you Saint Helena Jewelry, a collaboration of exquisite pieces from around the world assembled to form one of a kind heirloom treasures.

 

I work very closely with Hannah Borg, my lead designer, wiring genius, and beloved friend. We are so excited to present and share these exquisite finds with you. Now my friends…LET’S HOLD COURT!!
