STUDIO BLESSINGS FOR THE YEAR OF THE HORSE

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, we welcomed a lion dance into the studio for a blessing. After our recent move to Chinatown, it felt especially meaningful to mark this new chapter by honoring a tradition deeply rooted in the neighborhood we now call home.

This Lunar New Year marks the Year of the Horse — a symbol of strength, independence, and forward momentum. As the year begins, we move forward with that energy.

OBJECTS FOR THE HOME

I’m pleased to share a closer look at Jelena Behrend Objects.
Each piece is handmade with intention — forged slowly, from the heart — and grounded in my belief that objects can hold presence, offer calm, and carry meaning across time.

Like heirlooms that outlive their moment, these works are created to move through generations, carrying whatever is placed in them: protection, hope, memory, love. They are meant to live with you, and later, to speak for you.

INTRODUCING MEN'S ENGAGEMENT RING COLLECTION


I am no stranger to making jewelry for men. My work was always meant to be worn by all. Myself, a fan of men's garments, I always tried to fill in the fashion gap between genders. Let's be honest, only recently fashion designers started paying attention to "masculine" fashion and creative, innovative, fashion conscious men or men with a strong sense of style do not have to suffer for a lack of wardrobe and accessory choice anymore.


In my experience, men tend to choose less embellished jewelry, pieces that are perceived as simple and understated. By creating men's engagement ring* collection, I portrayed gold and precious stones in a masculine way. The designs (except the ring I custom made for Paul) are focused on the metal itself, its texture, luster, strength, and durability. The gemstones are incorporated to transform a particular ring into a celebratory piece, but without being overly flashy. Rings in this collection are designed and meant to be worn every day, as a powerful representation of commitment and love.
