Beth's Picks:

Apple Blossom Earrings

Staff Picks for Summer

"It usually happens that my most recent designs are my favorite pieces! These apple blossom earrings were inspired by springtime and they are the state flower of Michigan. They are detailed, yet could go with any outfit pretty easily."

Nina's Picks:

Conifer Couple Earrings and Yooper Roots Ring

Staff Picks for SummerStaff Picks for Summer

"I picked the conifer couple earrings and the Yooper Roots double band ring because I love the mixture of copper and silver. Both would be great to wear traveling to remind me of the place I am from…and the shape of the UP always gets recognized at least a few times by fellow travelers wherever I go!"

Lex's Picks:

Copper Firebrick Ring and Tree Frog Fundraiser Pendant

"I love the history behind Copper Firebrick as much as the beauty. They are not actually gemstones, but remnants of the smelting facilities in old Upper Peninsula copper mines. This double band ring is the perfect way to show it off.

My other favorite is the Tree Frog Fundraiser Pendant for the Keweenaw Land Trust. The fundraiser jewelry program exemplifies one of the reasons I love working here, commitment to make the world a better place. The Keweenaw Land Trust works to preserve land I care about and this frog is super cute."

"My favorites this summer are the Trillium Post Earrings because trilliums are one of my favorite flowers. I love looking out for them when I'm walking in the woods. Another favorite is our Fire Agate Pendants because I think the shifting colors look like a summer sunset."

"I've had my Superior Gales Pendant for a while now, and it's still my favorite! I like it especially in the summer when I'm spending a lot of time on the beach. It layers so nicely with this Michigan Greenstone Drop pendant too. This dark blue-green stone shimmers in bright sunlight and reminds me of looking over the Black Rocks cliffs into the deep, clear waters of Lake Superior"

"From the new ring collection my favorite is Gold Growing Love Diamond Twig Ring by far. It's so simple, beautiful, and elegant. Too bad I'm not getting married anytime soon otherwise that ring would be mine for sure! Another favorite of mine for the summer are the Apple Blossom Posts. They are so pretty and delicate I would literally never take them off."
