Patina multi-chain earrings

Just one of many beautifully simple creations from Stefanie, master and commander of ‘A Common Thread’. The store, which is Brooklyn based, but obviously flourishing online has an accompanying blog which is also well worth a visit.

Some pieces, while not necessarily being the most intricate in design, do just enough to catch your eye, but not assault you with homemade craftiness. I like that. There are other bits which are truly detailed, like the doily above, and are lovingly exhibited and sold thanks to some very effective imaging and use of seasoned and well chosen props.
