Inspired by the nature and symbolism associated with Louisiana, my signature collection focuses on capturing the unique proportion, texture, and poetry of our magnificent Live Oaks. Each one carries history in its soul, expressing Louisiana’s beauty, strength, and resilience perhaps more eloquently than the fleur de lis.
This large brooch is the Louisiana Live Oak with long roots and sprawling canopy extend an invitation to relax and unwind while listening to the breeze rustle through its leaves of chrome diopside.
Chrome diopside is thought to boost creative vision and awareness, while encouraging one's desire to learn. Some cultures even believed this luscious green stone came from the tree of life.
