rose gold smokebush flower hexagon danglie post earrings

All items are handmade and are one of a kind from foraged wild and domesticated plants. I collect whatever is in season on my daily walks, usually in the Philadelphia area. The composition of my pieces range from traditional (using whole, pressed flowers and leaves) to more abstract. Each piece involves laying jewelry-grade resin in several layers, over several sittings.

All handmade jewelry will have natural imperfections, and that’s what gives each piece their alluring details, originality and soulful nature. Variations and "imperfections" are not unwelcome.

Smokebush is one of the first botanicals I worked with in my resin journey, and remains one of my favorites. I like to tell people that it looks like it belongs in a Dr. Seuss book, with its fancy tendrils and pom pom flower buds. From afar, this blossoms look like puffs of smoke coming off the plant, hence the name smokebush. These flower tendrils and deep red, and keep their color.
