Jewelry can be a reflection of what is of meaning and value to us

 
 

Our ancient ancestors believed some stones were imbued with special properties, such as bringing protection, wisdom, or courage to the wearer. A modern interpretation of this is the metaphysical properties of gemstones - empowering and manifesting what we wish to create.

Demonstrating how to wear tassels as layering necklaces

AN INTENTIONAL JEWELRY COLLECTION

The TalisWOMEN series was created out of this intention: attainable jewelry to remind us of who we are and what we are made of.

These memorable, customizable necklaces and tassels are universal wardrobe staples to wear in the boardroom as well as brunch! Style a necklace you already have with a tassel and add texture to your layering necklaces!

Below is a selection of ready-made necklaces and tassels! Keep in mind I have a greater selection outside of what appears on the website, so if you are seeking a rare gemstone or a bespoke length, please connect with me via email.

A MEMORABLE STATEMENT WITH IMPACT

Whether you choose the rich hues of ombre tourmaline, the striking allure of sapphire, or the fiery sparkle of spinel, the TalisWOMEN series will turn heads. Best of all, they can align with climate action!

All gemstone beads are natural and sourced from mining communities around the world. When the country of origin is certain, it is disclosed. For example, opals are from Peru and Australia. The fine gemstones you see in the bespoke tassel series are responsibly sourced - each with a traceable provenance. An especially unique option is post-consumer recycled gemstones, such as an antique carved ruby.

The “ingredients” in the jewelry you choose can support the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Bespoke gemstone tassel options for customized pendants

The tassel caps are handmade and cast in 14-karat gold or sterling silver. The tassel strands are hand strung and arranged in a variety of ways, from ombre to solid and some have a “secret” strand.

Necklaces are comprised of “S” claps and jump rings using either 14k Fairmined gold, 14k gold, or sterling silver. Gemstone beads are hand-strung with silk or hand-knotted with silk at a range of lengths. This includes a close fit near the neckline to long, sautoirs that can be looped multiple times around the neck. You can find the fit that is right for you with this guide.

Diamond or Colored Gemstone Deposit

Source an heirloom-worthy diamond or colored gemstone for your engagement ring that is uniquely beautiful to you and aligns with your values.

This could be:

• POST-CONSUMER RECYCLED DIAMONDS - these memorable diamonds support climate action because they have already incurred a cost in their carbon footprint, whether they are 4 or 400 years old. 

• RESPONSIBLY SOURCED DIAMONDS - such diamonds from Botswana, Australia, Canada, or other nations have a more holistic goal of protecting people, their skills, and the natural environment.

• RESPONSIBLY SOURCED COLORED GEMSTONES - colored gemstones sourced from artisanal miners (some of which are women) create sustainable local economies through vertical integration.

• LABORATORY GROWN DIAMONDS - not all laboratory-grown diamonds are climate-friendly. I only source lab-grown diamonds whose energy-intensive production is powered by renewable energy - specifically, powered by a solar plant within an hour drive from where the diamonds are grown and precision cut just outside of Surat in the western Indian state of Gujarat, India. Note that while laboratory-grown diamonds are economical, they will not hold their value.

$500 DEPOSIT includes

• a discovery call to explore gem options that align with your values, identify the budget, shape, and other considerations

• presentation of 2 - 3 options, depending on rarity

• this non-refundable deposit will be applied to the purchase of your selected diamond or colored gemstone

TALISWOMEN GEMSTONE BEADS HELP PLANT MANGROVE TREES

Planting mangrove trees protects from land erosion and supports carbon capture

The cabochon beads in your TalisWOMEN jewelry have helped plant mangrove trees! It is one of the most efficient tree species for carbon capture due to its heavy and dense roots.

Beyond the positive impact on the environment, mangroves also:

  • Provide livelihoods for local villagers at our planting sites

  • Nursery habitat for flora and fauna

  • Shoreline protection from erosion, storm surges, and flooding

  • Filters pollutants
