#Featuring #Sarah #Martinez #Gem #Gossip #Jewelry #Blog
One of my favorite booths at NY NOW was fine jewelry designer Sarah Martinez. I was instantly transported back to my Arizona honeymoon when seeing her jewelry designs. Wanderlust hit me hard seeing her pieces, many of which are named after destinations. I love the cactus and shell pendants – both made from unique gemstones and reclaimed/recycled gold. Her pieces are made in Colorado and NYC, both one-of-a-kind and ready to ship. Let me know which piece speaks to you!
