Pinecone Jewelry Collection

Australian pines are a thirsty species often imported to help fortify coastlines. Our pinecones were found in the Florida Keys and on the Caribbean island chain of the Grenadines. Their shapes are hearty, but when carved, truncated, or sliced as fine jewelry, their natural texture and the depths of their highs and lows pick up light in an extraordinarily beautiful way.

Crack a pinecone open and you’ll find a honeycomb: a gorgeous organic grid perfect for casting light or cradling gems. We discovered the pinecones in our collection on the coastlines of the Florida Keys, where we go to visit family, and on the Caribbean island chain of the Grenadines, where we lived for a magic year when we were first married. We love that their humble shells contain such intricate structures, and we love to share their secret with the world.
