♥ NEW to The Fancy Affair! ♥
Upper Metal Class is
defined as a minimalist cool with a hint of light hearted fun. It’s
subtle yet makes a big statement of less is more with a sense of
confidence. The jewelry line was developed upon simple designs to become
part of the wardrobes basically cool everyday go to pieces. The
inspiration comes from architecture, construction, math, science, and
the natural life all around us. They are the strong sleek lines + curves
in buildings, imperfect yet beautiful cracks in sidewalks, cool shapes
in objects and the unbelievable patterns formed by nature. All these
things including the connection between people are what influences and
gives meaning to each carefully handcrafted design. ALL HANDMADE IN U.S.A. Los Angeles - California

♥ New to The Fancy Affair! ♥
We are excited to introduce Jené DeSpain Jewelry to The Fancy Affair!
Growing up
in the creative environment of Portland, Oregon, Jené DeSpain began
shaping her sense of style as a young girl. The daughter of a craftsman
and an artist, her understanding of design and construction was strongly
encouraged. Working next to her father in his woodshop honed her love
for tools, while sketching with her mother developed her visual
aesthetic. Jené moved to NYC in 1997 to enrich her artistic, urban
lifestyle and worked many years as a fashion photographer, deepening her
admiration for the many fine professionals and artists who work in the
fashion industry. Drawn to a number of mediums to express her interest
in raw material, tangible artifact, and multifaceted design, she
eventually discovered a new satisfaction in jewelry design.
Completely
self-taught, Jené DeSpain launched her first jewelry collection in
early 2010, at the dawn of our new decade. Its immediate success led to a
fast-growing, loyal clientele, and her jewelry is now carried by fine
retailers in multiple cities worldwide. Working in her Brooklyn studio,
Jené personally crafts each piece of jewelry by hand with a dedication
to quality from materials made entirely within the United States.
With
each collection, Jené broadens her exploration of design and her
devotion to creating striking pieces of jewelry outside the confines of
momentary trends. Cultivating a constantly evolving community of fellow
designers, artists, musicians, stylists, and patrons of her work, is
Jené’s greatest source of inspiration. Her collaboration with the
expanse of talent in NYC and beyond connects Jené to the pulse of
fashion while she creates bold, distinct jewelry for those who respond
to innovative design. This love of culture is revealed in each piece of
her jewelry and remains at the heart of her brand.
