I don’t know Elijah and Rhonda Wyman of Figs & Ginger, but I feel like we should be friends. I contacted them via email to inform them I’d gone bonkers over a necklace my husband had bought me from their collection, and to ask if I could steal some images from their site.
They said Yes!
I love love love this jewelry. Not only is it impeccably designed, with a delicate elegance that evokes a stunning, simple line drawing when worn, but the added bonus: Rhonda (the metal-smith and designer) takes care to use recycled materials, resulting in a product that is eco-friendly, a steal for the quality, and you’ll feel and look good wearing it!
Mike surprised me with the Nestlings Necklace: two birds, posed gingerly facing each o
ther. I feel like I’m amidst a fairy tale forest scene when I wear it and the necklace pairs perfectly with everything I’ve tried so far…t-shirts, suits, and even an evening gown!
In their own words,
“Running a responsible small business is top priority to us. We promise that we make as many 'green' decisions as we possibly can. We are always exploring and researching new ways of cutting down waste, we always recycle, and we try to reinvent most everything we can salvage. All of our literature is printed on 50%-100% post consumer recycled stock, we use local independently owned printers who use soy based inks, and hydro electricity. We also practice these habits in our everyday lifestyle. We encourage you to do the same.”
Yay!!! We need more business people like them. By the way - it’s always a good idea to contact local shop owners and encourage them to carry products you want to buy – I plan to do this myself!
I don’t get paid to say any of this, unless currency has recently been converted to sheer satisfaction…so you can be assured I speak honestly…click on over to Figs & Ginger and indulge yourself on a piece (or all) of their current collection and support a great cause, and enjoy!
