There's something beautiful about having a jewelry collection that truly represents the path you've walked. From the edge of the Bayou to the bustling Bourbon Street storefronts, there’s always a little something that catches your eye. Whether it's the way the moss drapes the trees of the river's edge, or the hummingbirds zooming past your ear, or even the shrimp po' boy you can't seem to forget, there’s a found-object-inspired piece waiting to be discovered and added to your jewelry collection.
Steal a Piece of Nature
The beauty of found object jewelry is that it can be whatever you want. So if you're strolling down the Bayou's edge and find yourself captured by the Spanish moss that feels it was draped just for you, capture it, and look for a jewelry designer who’s created a beautiful and stackable Spanish ring that reflects its silvery strands. Perhaps you spend hours sitting at the river's edge, where you watch as the water flows gently by. Perfect. Capture that stillness by looking for a piece that reflects that moment, and carry that peace with you through your everyday life.
Capture a Bit of the Sky
Ever wish you could lasso the moon? Or steal the feeling of watching a hummingbird returning home? You can. That's the magic of found-object-style jewelry. If you can imagine it, there's probably a jeweler who can or has cast it. So fall in love with the silver moon shining in the night sky and clasp it around your neck with a crescent shaped moon necklace. Or watch a hummingbird head straight towards its sterling silver home with a hummingbird birdhouse necklace and really bring the outdoors to every outfit, in a little found-object-look piece.
Take a Bite To-Go
You know those meals that are so good you think about them every day? Whether you're craving the po’boy you had on Bourbon Street or dreaming of the shrimp creole you stole a bite of on date night, take a little piece to go and add it to your jewelry box. Believe it or not, many jewelers in New Orleans understand the impact NOLA food has, so they cast it in sterling silver or gilded bronze and add it to the sales floor or website log so you can take home silver shrimp earrings that never go bad.
