Tourmalines are beloved by HBJ for their singular inclusions that evoke a variety of still-beauty, from lily ponds to watercolor paintings. The discovery of tourmaline occurred during the 1500s in Brazil, where it was mistaken for emerald. Tourmaline’s wide spectrum of colors earned its name from the Sinhalese word for “mixed gems”- green tourmalines are the most popular iteration and a studio favorite for their lush and organic refinement, but each variety seems to hold the most beautiful shades of every color.
Origins: Various
MOHs Hardness: 7-7.5
Care: Although tourmalines are sturdy, they are not invincible and can break: avoid dropping them onto hard surfaces. To clean your tourmaline jewelry, soak in warm, soapy water and remove any dirt with a toothbrush or the like. Do not use an ultrasonic of steam cleaner.

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.
