Labradorite is a type of feldspar, like moonstone, known for its labradorescence: a metallic optical effect of blues and greens that shifts across different crystal planes. It was named for the Labrador Peninsula in Canada, where it was identified in the 1700's, though it had been used thousands of years earlier by the Red Paint People of Maine. Inuit legend tells that the Northern Lights were once trapped within the rocks along the coast of Labrador, giving labradorite its luminous glow.

THE ANATOMY OF THE BARNACLE

Small but enduring, barnacles thrive where waves, wind, and time leave their mark. Their clustered forms remind us that strength is found in persistence: holding fast, growing together, and weathering every tide. A quiet echo of the sea, and of resilience shaped over time.

From tiny clusters to sprawling formations, smooth domes to gemstone-set treasures, Hannah has spent years creating a world of barnacles in every size and shape. Each begins as a hand-carved wax sculpture, capturing the organic textures and irregular beauty of the shoreline before being cast in precious metal.

We love to adorn pearls, turquoise, and other beads and stones with barnacles - a curious twist on a classic design. Drilled and set into the surface, the barnacles cling as though they always belonged there.

Cast in solid silver, gold, and platinum, the barnacles take on a new permanence as tiny forms that capture the ocean’s raw beauty.
