Every piece that leaves this atelier was made in a particular state.

Calm. Present. Grounded. Joyful.

The Things We Hold

My work is meant to be touched and held.

A cast holds detail the living flower is too fragile to offer, and I’ve begun making pieces that ask to be held, not only looked at.

An offering

Buying from me is something I like to see as an offering.

It is an invitation to live with art in an entirely new way, a way that is infinite in its blessings. My collections are very small, and intentional.

Every drop is announced through my newsletter with previews. They will always take place at 9 am PT. Please be sure you are signed up for the newsletter to receive all the information ahead of time, so there is no disappointment.

Drop I: 28 October 2026

Drop II: 6 November 2026
