These dynamic, highly unique, one-of-a-kind custom designs are her specialty, meticulously handcrafted in sculptural and conceptual designs with gold, platinum and silver, and gemstones. Her brand has been described as classic, pure, refined, clean, and organic. She has small, diverse collections that differ from each other, expressing her expansive creativity. Current collections include Jewelry of Faith, Black n Gold n Diamonds, Stix, Men’s, Pearls, Simply, and One-of-a-Kind. Brenda has been referred to as “The Jeweler of Fine Art” whose work is influenced by a myriad of thoughts, symbols, and unique materials. She strives to create jewelry that fuses exceptional design with powerful symbols and inspirational messages. Inspiration comes from experiences, themes, or the stone itself (she prefers working with uncalibrated stones since it encourages creativity from the start), “The design is inside just waiting to emerge as wearable art. It is a part of who I am.”
