Hasta La Ideas

For Valentine’s Day jewelery designer Laura Lobdell, known for casting found objects like champagne corks and matchsticks in silver, created four new pieces, which each come accompanied by hand-painted cards.

A more gritty version of Margiela’s hospital bracelet, the Four Letter Love Cuff says “I found you and you have made a big impression on me!” An immortalized cigarette butt reads “You are the one, no ifs ands or butts about it.” Another favorite, the candy heart with a bite taken out of it, becomes a sweetly abstract charm.

For those in NYC, visit Laura’s petite store filled with charming little trinkets, or order online from her website.
