Often times our most wonderful discoveries are merely the recognition of what is before us – and in this case under foot! This botanical jewelry collection was inspired by unearthing of the usefulness of invasive weeds and pays homage to its winged cultivator.

“Mama, Mama! Make a wish!”
The golden dandelion has endured for centuries. It was originally brought to the Colonies by the English – intentionally – for its medicinal and culinary use. There was a time when grass was cleared for this honored migrant, but now the opposite is true. Dandelions have been used all over the world in a plethora of remedies and recipes, and have only recently been dismissed as a weed.
