ABOUT OUR METALS:
*Brass and nickel silver are base metals that will darken over time. Some like the patina that develops as they age, but they can also be kept bright with a polishing cloth. Please note that some people with skin sensitivities may have skin reactions to these metals.

Pauline Stanley, born and raised in Virginia, now lives with her raucous family of seven, including her husband, two sons, daughter, two cats and one dog, in the Bon Air area of Richmond, VA. She has been hand making jewelry and accessories since 2006. In 2008, she built a business as a vintage clothing and jewelry seller for her online shop, Fashion House Vintage. There she cultivated a love for business ownership and all things vintage, but missed utilizing her creativity to express her own perspective in design.

She then decided to devote her time and effort to developing her creativity and learned graphic design, printmaking, hand dyeing and metalsmithing techniques. In 2011, she created her own handmade shop, a place that provided her an outlet to sell some of the accessories and jewelry pieces she was making out of her home. There she found and community of people who shared her vision. Today she continues to run her handmade shop out of her studio, while furthering her skills in jewelry and design. In her current designs, she finds an incredible amount of inspiration from geometric shapes and patterns, midcentury design, ethnic patterns, fun quirky trends, and loves translating them into minimalist modern designs for everyday life. Most of all, she is happy growing a business where she can make things and share them with a community of people who appreciate her vision and the importance of shopping artist made products.
