From sun-kissed summer days to those magical evening moments when the light softens and everything glows, Golden Hour is a time to reflect and rejoice in all that is and once was. This collection, a nod to our roots and passion for modern vintage designs, encapsulates the essence of ’90s runway glamour—where more is more, and less is more. Handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, each piece is destined to become iconic, capturing the spirit of a bygone era while remaining effortlessly contemporary.
Golden Hour is a statement collection designed for those who aren’t afraid to make a bold impression. Large statement earrings, bold chain necklaces, versatile pearls, and beaded gemstone designs are crafted in stainless steel with natural gemstones and faux pearls. These pieces can be styled alone or layered together for maximum impact. Let the sundowners begin—it’s time to celebrate.
