So Villainess has clearly cultivated a sense of tactile and olfactory indulgence. It’s probably no surprise then that I’ve got a weak spot for shiny, colourful baubles. We’ve wanted to do a series of enabling features for the lifetime of this blog (that is, nearly three years), and figured that starting with one of our favourite jewelers is a great place to kick this off!

Sihaya Designs has been keeping me in earrings since February 2008. My very first must-have purchase was the Gunmetal Valentine - a sweet pair of earrings done up in pale pink, blood red and my favourite gunmetal (obvs) finish.

Since then, I’ve gotten to watch Christina’s work expand to include intricate wire work, gemstones with the most intriguing features, innovative resin techniques, precious metal clay sculpture, and some truly stunning fusions of wire wrapping and hammered metal. Most recently? Persephone Rising:

I’m very close to treating myself to this gorgeous collar, but I don’t think I’d have anywhere to wear such an elegant statement piece.

In the meantime, my bat wings should keep me happy!
