In The Darling Chic Boutique Today, Enso Bracelet

by trish on September 11, 2009

item-46752-48670d021d058-m
La Cinta Bracelet – tang – carnelian and sterling

The “Tang” colorway is a prototype of a new design – the “La Cinta” style features a narrow band of sterling wire and bead weaving, embellished at either side with gemstone rondelles. The piece is all metal and involves no thread, it has a significant weight and a springy quality to the weave. This bracelet is exactly 8 inches and closes with a lobster clasp and sterling rings. It’s good if you wear a seven inch bracelet and like a loose, sexy fit. Entirely hand woven, bead by bead.

Shop the complete Enso jewelry collection here.

About the designer:

Ensō is a meeting of ancient and antique bead weaving techniques and stitches with the cool aesthetics of modernism. Utilizing sterling silver, gold fill, high quality plated glass and metal beads, and lovely semiprecious gems and pearls, beaded jewelry takes a pared-down and elegant direction.

Ivey Brassil studied sculpture, installation, video, painting, photography – possibly everything other than metalsmithing and fiber art. She brings her interest in minimalism, repetition, color, and utilizing pre-fabricated forms in collage arrangement  to jewelry making. She focuses here on art jewelry with a modernist sensibility and an eye toward wearability.

I absolutely adore the Jasmine blouse in the Yana Collection. It’s gorgeous, meticulously sewn and the ruffles add an unexpected whimsy toward a strong modern-day business woman’s look. I would DEFINITELY get this!

Probably a piece of jewelry from go robot!, like the Galactic ring

O.K. I HAD A LOT OF FUN looking on the SmashingDarling website. I hit on something that is a must have!!! PUNKIN NYC’s Noelle coat. It comes in pink or white and I looovve it.

Baxters house has some nice bracelets, Hot Lunch has some cute aprons which I am into for some reason, and Buster and Boo has this really sweet Bunny bun necklace which I would give to a friend who calls her daughter that.

Love, love, love the reworked bold 1960’s coat and the Sexy 1970’s Turquoise Dress.

Thanks for letting us know that such a special website and store exist. As far as what I would like to buy from Smashing Darling, it would be an Emily Watson snowflake pendant, then the Kwabena black chiffon top seahorse dress and the Lucy Sweater by Kate Boggiano.

The Sandmaiden pants would be great for teaching yoga classes.
