The willow doesn't grow in straight lines — and neither do we.

It bends toward the water. It trails its branches in the current. It moves with the wind instead of against it, and it keeps growing anyway. There is a particular kind of strength in that — in knowing when to hold and when to flow.

The Salix Collection is a tribute to that quiet, rooted strength. Inspired by the willow trees that shaped my childhood — the furniture my family made from their branches, the tree tattooed on my back, the ring I haven't taken off since I made it — each piece is hand fabricated in sterling silver with an oxidized finish that brings out every detail of the leaf texture and the natural movement of the design.

No two pieces are exactly alike. Each one is made by hand in my Wyoming studio, shaped and textured individually so that what you receive is entirely its own.

The Salix Collection includes:

The Salix Ring — a willow leaf ring in sterling silver, hand carved and textured. The one I wear every single day. Available in sizes 5-10.5. Find the rings here.

The Salix Earrings — Classic — the willow earring I've been making for years. 3.25" long. 

The Salix Earrings — Short — a shorter version made in response to requests for something a little more everyday. 2.5" long.

The Salix Cuff — brand new. A willow leaf in sterling silver, wrapped around your wrist. Hand carved, hand textured, hand shaped. 1/2" in width. Fits best on a 5.75-6.25" wrist. Made in very small numbers.

Wearing the Salix Collection is like carrying a piece of somewhere that shaped you — on your hand, at your wrist, close to who you are.

✨ Key Features:

  • Hand fabricated in sterling silver with oxidized finish
  • Each piece individually made — no two exactly alike
  • Inspired by the willow tree and its symbolism of strength, flow, and quiet resilience
  • Available as rings, earrings, and cuff — select your piece above
  • Made in small quantities — limited availability, no restock planned
  • Sterling silver care: remove before swimming, showering, and exposure to chemicals, lotions, and perfumes. Store in a dry place. Polish with a soft cloth to maintain shine.

Bring a little willow with you — a reminder that bending is not the same as breaking, and that the most rooted things know how to move.
