45 - nova lily: naturally autumn



cotton lace and merino wool are two of my favourite and most cherised materials. it's not surprising that they are taking centre stage in the new nova lily fall collection, available in the shop.

27 - more wearable porcelain: chequita nahar

i recently stumbled upon this gorgeous collection of porcelain-based jewellery from Chequita Nahar (pinned by Kate Miss via the best time of the day) and was immediately delighted by the discovery of more wearable porcelain that bridges the divide between art, craft, & fashion. i love the subtle combination of delicate white porcelain with natural materials and textures, especially the oak and pine... it feels so down-to-earth and raw, but is also wonderfully pretty. 


simply love.

19 - wearable porcelain

having recently purchased a pair of these sweet little "How about Circles" porcleain earrings from Montreal designer Maboue (jeweler Soleil Flemming is truly a delight and even hand-delivered my package, adding brightness to another gloomy and rainy Montreal day - how wonderful is that?!), i was inspired to search for other wearable porcelain, an artform i have long admired. here's a round-up of a few of my favourite finds:

fossil porcelain ring by Suite One Studio

porcelain pendants by Klei

crystal visions & hand cut jewels from dani m 

a collaboration between Lisa Frier Ceramics and Lynn & Jane Eppel (Silver Eppels)
