A lizard for Mother's Day...
My lucertola necklace/bracelet was featured in Home Business Magazine this month. Inspired by reptiles, this sustainable piece becomes a bracelet once it loses its “tail”, just like lizards release their tail when escaping a predator.

A baby sea turtle on its way to the ocean. I got this image during my research on sea turtles and dolphins in the Biosphere Reserve of Rio Lagartos, Yucatan, Mexico… many years ago. #naturephotography

Just off the bench: onda ruggente con spuma ring - A foamy wave roaring ("onda ruggente con spuma" in Italian) inspired the design of this unique ring hand crafted in reclaimed, partially oxidized brass and silver. And guess what? It’s for sale in my online shop! Also available in other unique and wave-inspired shapes.

Yesterday, I went to see Melissa Kanarek, founder of Brass Tack in Laguna Beach. She just opened her store in a new location, but still in the heart of Laguna, with her partner. The shop (almost a gallery) is amazing and a true labor of love. Brass Tack is highly curated with local, fair trade and some vintage pieces that “embody the philosophy of unique living and homemaking”. Here, you can also find many new pieces from my Spring 2018 collection and some of my signature jewelry in silver, bronze and gold (like this pair of onda earrings in bronze). Totally worth a visit! Brass Tack - 311 Ocean Avenue Laguna Beach, Ca 92651. Image+design: ©️maddalenabearzi @brass_tack @iamthelab #lagunabeach #lagunabeachshopping #handmadejewelry #earringsoftheday #shoplagunabeach

You never know what you can find in the abyss. "Fondo marino" ring is inspired by the beauty of the ocean bottom and the relics that still lay there.
