Susan, originally an attorney and mother of three, transformed her lifelong passion for design and fashion into a reality. Originally from South Africa, Susan is naturally attracted and inspired by mother nature. She is drawn to color and texture, and is attracted to natural beauty, which is a constant reminder of her surroundings growing up. She is drawn to earthy, faceted semi-precious stones such as citrine, smokey quartz and topaz. With her love of design she views her work simply as "a subtle balance between the design and the stones so that one does not overcome the other and a symbiosis is formed." In her process she let’s the materials dictate when the design is complete.

With her exotic variety of materials, Susan loves to be surrounded by color and beauty, but also to meet the unique individuals who appreciate it and wear her creations.

From a black tie event or a day on the beach, her jewelry is the perfect accessory for every occasion.
