Our store features Canadian artists and your favourite everyday classics (hello silver hoops & chains) plus cute pieces for kids!! Dianne has been creating jewellery since childhood - buying her first bag of beads at a local street fair when she was 7-years old. In 2009, Dianne studied gemmology, earning her professional certification from the Canadian Gemmological Association in Toronto. She cont
inued her studies by completing the world-renowned program in jewellery appraising from the California Institute of Jewelry Training in 2010. Dianne's Twisted collection became the center of her universe in 2013, after perfecting the imperfections of the technique. This collection of carefree, elegant designs became an instant hit with customers right across Canada, the United States, and beyond. The pieces are made using sterling silver and 14k gold fill. Every item is handmade in the beautiful Ottawa Valley at Dianne's home studio - a bright and cozy place, where Dianne's daughter's (Eliza - 4, and Alex - 6 months) like to visit, play, and help. "I love my job as a designer and maker. I love meeting my customer's and learning about how a simple piece of jewellery can make them feel even more like themselves - beautiful, edgy, elegant, shy, cooky.. all of it! One thing that makes me very proud is how happy people are with my warranty. If it breaks, I will fix it - for free! I stand 100% behind my work, and I want everyone who own a piece to be able to love it and wear it for years!
