Hamish showing off cufflinks LilacCufflinks

 

As the International Editor at Large for Vogue, Hamish Bowles is recognized as one of the most respected authorities on the worlds of fashion and interior design. With one of the largest private collections of vintage clothing in the world, this dapper, globetrotting style icon has made a name for himself as a fashion historian.

Friday, March 13, 2015 he was the guest lecturer at the Gibbes Museum of Art spring luncheon.  The Gibbes invited me to design and make a special gift for him, which were the silver Lilac Cufflinks pictured above.  I was inspired by his passion for the color lilac and designed the cufflinks based on the flower.  The other image is of him showing them off to the ladies at the luncheon.  It was quite an honor to create something unique for such a renowned fashion figure!

Back in November 2014 I met a really interesting couple at my studio at Redux and we had a nice conversation.  I just happened to be there that day as the following day I was going to the Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show.  It was a great chance encounter and the next week Lisa and Rob Howard contacted me about being part of a photography series Rob was working on based on artists and makers.  I was honored to be included and he shot me in my studio amongst my tools and equipment.  The portrait he included in his series is posted here.

Launching very soon on my website will be new images, products, and a line of jewelry!  

Over the past month I have been working with the incredibly talented Paul Cheney and Jason Kaumeyer of JWKPEC on four different shoots of my jewelry being worn by my friends and my functional pieces in use.  This image was taken on location at the Warehouse in downtown Charleston, located at 45 Spring Street.  The Warehouse was great to work with and we enjoyed their delicious food and excellent drinks during the shoot.  Their space is gorgeous and we were so excited to use it for a jewelry shoot!  Stay tuned as the images will be posted on my website soon!
