I caught Nervous System‘s new Algae collection online and thought it was so gorgeous. From Nervous System: “Our new line … explores a range of botanical patterns by systematically abstracting the cycles of growth and bifurcation seen in plants.” All the pieces in the collection are made in stainless steel and twenty-four karat gold plated steel.
Large algal bloom pendant in stainless steel, $45. In 24 karat gold plated steel, $55.
Spied some fabulous rings by self-taught designer Christa Reniers via Bloesem. I’ve always been a sucker for gold. All of her designs are wonderfully sculptural in sterling silver, yellow gold and white gold. Totally love. She also has a lot of unique settings for her gemstones. Buy from her online shop here.

Jade from We Dream in Colour sent me a preview of her new enamel collection and I loved all the color. Especially in those earrings! The delicate necklaces are so perfect and will look great with the season’s floaty dresses.

Saw these on Something Old, Something New and totally fell in love. From Nervous System: “Each piece of this series is a unique, one of a kind composition born from the intersection of rapid prototyping and pattern generating algorithms. Tiny circles of varying sizes are aggregated into complex configurations that mimic the natural forms of corals and seaweeds.”
I love delicate yet graphic jewelry… especially in gold. I also especially love the fact that anyone can play with the software that generates these designs and order a one-of-a-kind piece. So sweet!
Coral Series, $65. Half Moon Series, $65. Both are also available in stainless steel.
I love the delicate intertwined pendants from jeweler Ginette NY. I keep meaning to visit the boutique downtown but haven’t made it quite yet. For now, I admire the work on ShopBop. These pendants say “Joy” and “You” in 14-carat gold. A co-worker has a personalized monogram of her initials and it is so gorgeous… The personalized pendants are smaller than the ones above but still as delicate. Such a perfect gift.
These necklaces with gorgeous green patina are from a lovely jeweler named We Dream in Colour. They’re made of brass with hand worked verdigris. That first necklace is especially nice because those pendants hang off the chain in a sort of off-center fashion lending an asymmetrical look. So cute. And affordable.
