San Antonio, Texas
Finding inspiration in both the beauty of nature and enduring elements of style, Texas-based designer Nicola Bathie crafts jewelry that feels at once au courant and abiding. A stumbled-upon jewelry-making class influenced Nicola’s distinctive line of artful earrings that are embellished with floral elements, mother-of-pearl, gilded accents, and kaleidoscopic gems. Though earrings remain Nicola’s bread and butter, she offers a few coordinating items, like a new chinoiserie bracelet, and plans call for expanding the hand-sculpted potted papier-mâché blooms that spearheaded her Jewelry for the Home creations.
