We're excited to be participating in our second annual Plaid Friday sample sale at the new location of Crown Nine in Oakland!

BUT, if you don't live in the Bay Area, don't fret!  There will be an online sample sale commencing Sunday December 1st at 9 am PST.  Like us on Facebook for details!

new stockist: garde

We're growing and it has been very exciting!  Head over to the website to see the recently updated list of locations that now carry Sarah Swell jewelry, with even more to come before the holidays.

One new account that we're particularly excited about is Garde.  This LA based lifestyle boutique calls itself "modern natural," which is exactly the aesthetic that I try to breathe into my jewelry, and life for that matter.

I cannot wait to take road trip south and visit!

But in the meantime, I'm drooling over this this and this.

photos from the studio

While the film crew for the Progressive Apron Project was busy shooting video, I had the pleasure of also having the studio photographed by talented Brooklyn based photographer Ren Yagolnitzer.

Take a look at her beautiful work on her blog.  Thanks Ren!

A sweet couple sent me this image taken over their wedding anniversary weekend showcasing her Flotsam & Jetsam engagement ring.  It makes my day when clients share their jewelry stories and pictures with me!

Below are are some of my favorite images from Instagram of jewelry I've created lately.  I've been working hard to get all of my holiday orders out and look forward to sharing all my new pieces online soon!

 

The Most Progressive Thing

I was really excited to catch a glimpse of the studio and my apron tying abilities in the new Progressive car insurance commercial!  The team behind the new campaign visited me back in June for a half day of shooting in the studio.  I too was wondering what an apron has to do with car insurance, but now I get it.  Stay tuned as they roll out new content and visit the Thread Campaign to see more.

Look for the yellow apron :)
