Introducing the Diamondback Rattlesnake Bracelet
Original. Audible. Symbolic & Gives Back.
Some design inspirations float in like a cloud crossing a clear blue Tucson sky. Others strike suddenly, with focused clarity, and right on target.
The idea for the Diamondback Rattlesnake bracelet actually struck twice. The first one was the sudden realization of, "Wow... Its literally called a DIAMONDBACK RATTLER what a stupendous jewelry design." Then, while sculpting the first wax model I realized I could sculpt this in two parts to enclose an actual, audible RATTLE.
Boom! The Diamondback Rattlesnake bracelet was born. I've never had more fun making hidden meaning and secret message jewelry. I'm loving the look on everyone's face. They hold the piece, turn it over in their hand, admiring how the stones glint and sparkle. Then it dawns on them - they connect the "diamondback" reference and get a huge smile.
At that moment, while they're already enchanted, I make a motion telling them to shake it! The delighted, surprised expressions when they hear the rattle are the best. Those moments are exactly what this entire creative endeavor is all about.
I want the Diamondback Rattlesnake bracelet to be a connecting conversation piece because of the clever, original, unique surprise. But I also want it to be a meaningful, stylish symbol of the positive impact we can make through conscientious purchases. I also wear mine as a reminder to follow my instinct and know my inner power.
Proceeds benefit The Center for Biological Diversity, supporting the survival of biodiversity itself. A minimum of 10% of every purchase is dedicated to this incredible powerhouse organization based in Tucson, AZ.
I love this piece. From the start I was committed to the highest quality craftsmanship. That meant inviting Steve Perri to collaborate. Perri Jewelers in downtown Tucson is a beloved institution. A second-generation jeweler and the absolute best of the best, Steve is also a great resource and talented expert, a fun and curious person. He's open to creative ideas and challenges and he's also a supporter of local artists and nonprofits.
One thing lead to another and now I'm proud to announce that not only the Diamondback Rattlesnake bracelet - but the entire Nice by Nature Collection - can be seen at Perri Jewelers.
