Char Ouellette: poetry in silver
Those of you that have read HF in the past know we love us some silver. Rugged silver. Sexy silver. Organic shapes and textures. Char Ouellette has all of these features and more–a natural poetry. Behold our selections and you’ll see why Char Ouellette makes our hearts sing!
These earrings, called Simply Beautiful, perfectly capture the timeless beauty found in something as simple as a heel print in the sand; the discs suspended from the organic ovals add an unusual element to a standard favorite with a lovely curving shape. Paloma Picasso, eat your heart out–no one will know you didn’t spend hundreds!
Splash ring simply seduced us at first sight. (Like that subtle alliteration? There’s more where that came from.) As you can see for yourself, it’s sublime. With a three-band hammered and oxidized foundation and a dome textured with silver raindrops, Splash is the result of experimentation, and reminds us of water drops on sun drenched rocks. Perfection.
Chaos bracelet. Where to begin? Three strands of linked sterling circles give the bracelet a visual heft–making a statement that is actually wearable and not fussy. Suitable for women of all ages, we can imagine this bracelet making a favorable impression with a crisp white blouse–peeking saucily from the cuffs–or a black tee. Basic, but not boring!
Char Ouellette’s shop also contains explorations in glass–the pop of color against the texturized silver is definitely worth a peek. If you like the items featured here, we recommend you check out Wide Eyed, Gala (with juicy apple green!) and Menage a Trois in copper. Get your smelling salts–swooning will ensue! Best of all, Char Ouellette’s designs are timeless and won’t kill your savings. Guilt free pleasure? That’s always in style!
