Les Petites Mains

Busy little hands, dusty chalk, oil pastels across the knuckles, dirt under the finger nails. Those are the hands of my four-year old daughter on any given day. Having been a similar child - active, creative, and inquisitive the unfortunate lack in creative offerings of my youth haunts my memories. Having access to plenty of art classes via public school was not the issue, however the lack in support and opportunities to experience art in the making hugely impacted how I followed my passion. 

What goes on behind the scenes in prepping for a runway show? More than you can imagine. A peak into how it this collection went down. 

Months Away

 If you've been following Alice & Chains on Instagram you'll have noticed the hashtag #thisiscouture occurring frequently in recent posts.

What is couture?

Couture by definition is - the design and manufacture of fashionable clothes to a client's specific requirements and measurements.

What happens when you grow up and out of the jewelry from your youth? Or if your style changes? That's where Alice & Chains Jewelry comes in - we'll work together to design something that is your style and you'll want to wear. Check out the video to hear about a ruby ring we designed for a client. 

A frequent question about the price of jewelry is, why two pieces identical in size, color, and weight have a prices so dramatically different from one store to another? Historically speaking the value of a piece of jewelry has been heavily weighted upon the perceived value that a jeweler or retailer thinks a potential buyer would be willing to pay. 

The statement necklaces of Alice & Chains Jewelry are larger than life, generally heavy, and truly evoke the meaning of one-of-a-kind. These necklaces are often born from some found object I discover at some sort of sale, making the necklace impossible to replicate because their inspiration comes in the source of a single piece I discover. This is the case with the pictured alligator necklace.
