Klee here! If you’ve been feeling like you need a vacation but your calendar is screaming “absolutely not,” I might have found a loophole in the form of this beautiful nature getaway that you can actually take everywhere. This domed disk necklace is a total labor of love, hand-forged from one solid piece of antiqued sterling silver and hand-debossed with a one-of-a-kind nature scene that can never be exactly duplicated. I curved the top loop over to cradle a genuine Baltic Amber stone, which acts as the glowing sun over the landscape, giving you that perfect golden hour light even when the weather is doing its own chaotic thing. The whole piece hangs on a sturdy 18-inch antiqued sterling silver chain with a toggle clasp, and since it’s one-of-a-kind, this is the only one that exists. Consider it your personal portable sanctuary for the days when the “real world” gets a little too loud.
We walk around with these filters over our eyes, colored by our own biases and the rush of our daily lives. This piece, Stop and Look, is a challenge to strip all of that away. It’s about pausing long enough to see what is actually there, rather than just what you think is there. It’s about contemplating a moment from an unbiased point of view and really allowing yourself to soak in the situation without the noise of your own assumptions (possibly based on other people’s noise). Some people might call this idea some popular buzzword and make assumptions about what I’m trying to say… but let’s be real, it’s actually just the simple, human act of allowing yourself to see past your own nose. We have an unlimited capacity for love as human beings and we thrive when we are engaged in love and understanding. Here’s to more of that.
Rafi here! I think we spend way too much of our lives trying to fold ourselves up into neat little boxes so we don’t accidentally bump into anyone else’s comfort zone. We’re taught to be “ethereal” or “pretty” or “composed,” but honestly, there is a certain kind of wildness we all carry inside that isn’t interested in being polite. For me, this painting is about that exact moment you decide to stop apologizing for the space you take up and the power you actually have.
This piece is about commanding the space you inhabit. It’s an exploration of what happens when you finally stop trying to quiet the parts of yourself that were meant to roar. If you’ve ever felt like your own energy was a bit too much for the room you were in, this one is for you. It’s a reminder that being “untamed” isn’t a flaw, it’s how you finally learn to fly on your own terms.
Klee here! I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how we all have this small, stubborn glow that stays lit even when life feels like a cold, rainy Wednesday. This piece is centered around a pink-orange fire Labradorite that looks less like a stone and more like a captured sunset. This piece is a celebration of that rare, steady flame we all have inside us. It’s a tribute to the fact that you don’t have to be the loudest person in the room to have a light that is impossible to ignore.
We spend so much time looking for warmth and validation from the outside world, but there is something incredibly empowering about carrying your own fire. This necklace is a tribute to that glow. It’s for the days when you need to remember that you are your own source of light and that your warmth is one-of-a-kind.
Happy Valentine’s Day! Love comes in so many different forms, and since meeting this amazing woman, I’ve been lucky enough to experience them all.
Falling in love with who I am was the first step… it’s what allowed me to finally love another person fully. But falling in love with Klee, from the very second I met her, opened up a whole new world. It taught me what it means to truly experience the love of another.
I hope that today, you get to experience love in whatever form it comes to you. Whether it’s love for yourself, a partner, a friend, or your craft, embrace it all.
Klee Here! What started as a little experiment in the studio turned into something I’m absolutely obsessed with.
I found these spectacular double-terminated Labradorite crystals with that deep green and gold flash, and I knew I had to find a way to let that light speak for itself. I hand-wrapped them in solid sterling silver, letting the minimalist hooks flow right through the stones for a clean, contemporary look. They’re light, secure, and they have that raw, “Rogue” energy I love.
I’m always pushing myself to see what happens when I step outside my comfort zone, and these earrings are a reminder that the best things usually happen when you just start playing with an idea.
What do you think of this barrel style?
We are getting ready to go live tonight and have some fun! Our Love And Jazz Hands Live Stream event is tonight 1-30-26 at 5pm Eastern time! We’ll be chatting it up telling you stories from when Klee and I met. We’ll be showing off some new jewelry and art created with “love” in mind, and playing one of our songs! Oh, we will also be announcing the winner of the giveaway during the stream! So grab something warm and join us tonight for a fun time!
So, the 2026 “Love Is” calendars were officially sold out… YAY! Then I got a phone call from my dad.
He told me he wanted one, and the little kid in me got so excited that my dad actually wanted my art on his wall that I didn’t just order one… well I ordered eleven. It’s more cost effective.
That means both my parents are now officially squared away for 2026, and I have exactly 10 calendars left for the rest of you.
If you missed out the first time, here is your second and absolute last chance to snag one. Once these 10 are gone, they are really gone. Both my parents have theirs now, so the mission is technically accomplished.
Grab yours by visiting the link on our website!

I haven’t posted much the last few days… in case you are wondering, we are still kicking it.
Sooo, I (Rafi) still have no voice and have been in recovery mode. The good news: no COVID, no flu. The official prescription is lots of fluids and a whole lot of rest, and Klee is making sure I don’t push it and actually do what the doctors said.
Since I can’t talk much, I’m letting these little birds do it for me.
I made them on the wood from that tree that came down in our yard (you know the one).
Hopefully they brighten this blustery, wintery day just a bit.
