Once a week, I’ll be sharing something I’m calling The Throughline—a themed carousel paired with my own mini editor’s letter. Think of it as a little visual love note: part moodboard, part essay, part excuse to deep-dive into whatever’s inspiring me that week.
I’m starting with Alexander Calder’s jewelry—hand-hammered brass, twists of wire, and wearable sculptures that feel as alive as they look. This is, of course, on the heels of a very special dinner hosted in Bridgehampton for my client @fiamettaofficial which was a salon-style event centered on fine jewelry and fine art. In a moment where everything feels mass-produced and algorithm-perfect, Calder’s pieces remind me why the imperfect, the handmade, and the deeply personal will always win. His cuffs and necklaces aren’t “precious” in the traditional sense; they’re personal, almost intimate, like you’re wearing a secret from the artist himself. Every bend and dent is a reminder that a human hand, not a machine, brought them to life. And in a world of glossy perfection, that imperfection feels just right.
