Jennifer Behr Teams With Julia Berolzheimer


IT’S A MATCH: Accessories designer Jennifer Behr has teamed-edition range of jewelry and hair accessories.

“Julia and I started talking about the idea of creating something a year ago after having lunch when I was in Charleston,” Behr said, adding that their love of color and pattern lead the way. To begin, Behr asked Berolzheimer to send over imagery from her personal design board to set the mood direction. “We knew we wanted it to feel very chic summer so we pulled inspiration images of poolside midcentury California and the Italian Riviera — very Jackie Kennedy and a lot of Slim Aarons photographs.”

The result is a mix of pieces with a vintage yet modern whimsy — think chandelier earrings that use vintage turquoise beads from the ’90s with natural stones such as epidote, green and pink aventurine and rose quartz. Other earrings use natural stones with vintage Japanese coin pearls that are handmade piece by piece by local artisans over an open flame.
