This site was created with the loving support of an extended family of accessories designers, boutique owners, and industry insiders. In our typical boundary-blurring fashion, many of our colleagues have become close friends; and many who were friends first have worked for our cause in ways we may never be able to repay.

The web and user interface design for this site was conceived by Jeremy Bernstein, whose talent, generosity, humor and brilliance are seemingly boundless and who is genuinely a lovely man. He is a favorite amongst our staff and is a sought-after companion for all manners of pursuit. What's more, he's a sportsman -- and nearly always dresses the part. Sadly, girls, he's almost off the market, but if you'd like to throw yourselves at his feet, you can write to him at jeremybernstein@gmail.com

This site was built with the brain-brawn of one Russell Morgan, whom one day we hope to meet in person. His remarkable skill, thoughtfulness, patience and wit, however, have already been seen. We are thankful for all his hard work and the gracious manner in which he embraced our little project. We always seem to be writing to him in the middle of the night -- but you're free to anytime at russell_m@hotmail.com

Our lovely-lady-logo, which is seen rotating on the home page of this site, was created by the very amazing brush strokes of Len P. Small. He is not only the nicest neighbor we've ever had, but an extremely talented musician, illustrator, graphic designer, and cook! Take a look at some of his work at www.lenpsmall.com

We feel very lucky to have stumbled upon a sassy sisterhood of female entrepreneurs and business-owners, who are an inspiration every day of the week. Jill Hammer, the famed publicist, marketing-guru, and Hollywood-Style-Liaison is the first on this list. Working with her was one of the best moves we've made, and it's an honor to call her a friend and an advisor. Someday we hope to be half the woman she is...and you can tell her that at jill@hammerink.com

We are also indebted to Alice McCarney for giving us our first break and for believing in our jewelry, and in us; to Sandra and Karen at Frida's Closet for our first whiff of legitimacy; to Anthony Luciano for his early counsel; to Lara Kazan for inviting us and hosting our first Holiday Sale; to Lenore Solmo for her smart words and kind ear; to Marlene and Christine at Kiwi for their friendship; to Mindi Tirabassi for thinking along and introducing us to Russell; to Jenn Dickerson for her smarts and for letting us impose on her fiance; to all our amazing girlfriends who have endured endless talk about the jewelry, who wear the jewelry, who sell the jewelry, and who love the jewelry as we do.

Finally, to our families, whose support has been tireless and love unconditional. And to the three men who mean the most, without whom there isn't much: Josh, Arnold, and Willis.
