A trans woman jeweler championing authenticity through ornamentation. Edie turned to jewelry during her transition as a way of connecting to the inspirational women in her life, forging connections between craft, femininity, and authenticity.

Reflecting this journey, her signature collection of signet rings features a silhouette of her profile. By using an historical form, the silhouette, and placing her likeness in its frame, she is working to make a place for trans women within a legacy of artistry and representation.
