show me your stack : Jen Altman

show me your stack : series on Unruly Things, photo from Jen Altman

I’ve been following Jen Altman via the blog world for ages now.  she writes the blog Nectar & Light, where she documents adventures with food and her beautiful family.  plus, she’s an amazing photographer and just a genuinely inspiring gal.

Jen recently opened an online mecca for jewelry lovers called Cisthene.  if you haven’t checked it out, do so immediately.  when I asked her if she’d participate in this series, Jen sent me two images of her rotating stacks and let me pick which one to feature.  the out take is up on the Cisthene blog, check it out!

from Jen…
I always gravitated to rings and bracelets over all other jewelry. I lived and worked in Europe for some years in my twenties and really started collecting then… every piece has a story – a special energy.  Needlesstosay, I have amassed quite a collection and these are just some of my favorites that are in current rotation. I’m also really into mixing metals right now. My Roberto Coin anniversary band rarely leaves my finger; on top of that is a custom piece by designer Marisa Adamson that features the diamonds from my mother’s wedding band and an inverted zircon (not to be confused with zirconia – zircon is believed to be the oldest natural mineral on our planet) that was a gift from my husband; can’t get enough of the Odette Klaia Cage Ring – so much so I have one in each color; the  Kenaz Rune Ring by RedSofa is on my right index – it means fire and as someone with Aries in my sun, moon and ascendent, I’m a little (a lot) fiery. The other two pieces are by Cold Picnic and I’m absolutely obsessed with the way they sit together on that hand – I’ve been pairing them a lot lately.

incredible, right?  if you’re inspired to create a new stack or ad to your current one, Cisthene is just the spot to get started.  and we’ll give you a little incentive.  take 15% off all orders from now until this Friday, May 24 with the code UNRULYRINGS.

this series just wouldn’t be complete with out Satomi Kawakita.  I mean, come on.  the gal is queen of rings!  and her stacks are killer.  Satomi told me that she’s unveiling a new collection this fall and I’m just dying to see it.  I’m sure it’s incredible!

from Satomi…
They are all from my collection and some of them are one-of-a-kind and some new styles that I’ve been test driving.  I like to mix different materials and colors – silver, gold and platinum.  I will be adding more color stones for my new collection, but can’t talk much about them yet.  ;)

show me your stack : Rony Vardi

fellow ring lovers unite!!  today kicks off another new series on UT called Show me your Stack in which I’ve asked some of my favorite ladies to share photos of their ring-adorned fingers.  first up is Rony Vardi, the owner of Catbird, one of my favorite haunts for pretty rings and other jewels.

from Rony…
I am currently in love with my Rose Gold Tomboy ring (on the first knuckle of my wedding finger) because it is SO easy to wear, is the prettiest shade of pink and catches the light just so. It adds the exact right edge to my ever-evolving ring stack.  I have a special place in my heart for the Elisa Solomon Ancienne Ring (pointer finger) because it is the first really special (read: fancy) ring I bought for myself. I never take it off and it continues to dazzle me.

I’m excited about this new series, how about you?  if you’re interested in sharing your stack, shoot me an email at hello {at} unruly-things {dot} com.
