Erin Considine

A beautiful story about Erin, the designer of these gorgeous jewelry...
New York-based artist greatly combines two very diverse materials, Erin is able to continuously experiment with technique and form. Her natural-dye baths make use of ingredients like madder root, logwood, and onion skin. She tests new textile construction methods with every collection, incorporating weaving, crocheting, and the Japanese braiding style of Kumihimo into an ever-expanding roster of creation tools. Her metal forms are mined from the dregs of industrialism- whether it by repurposing dead-stock jewelry findings or sculpting models inspired by the antique metier. Her commitment to sustainability ensures that almost every step of the production process is completed by hand in New York, primarily by Erin herself. A sustainable jewelry designer, does it get any better...Her jewelry helps my game of thrones addiction, cause i think they would fit Daenerys Targaryen (and me..) really well...sorry if this sounds very abracadabra to you.....in other words i really like..haha...
