A wonderful gift for a friend and fellow Jon Langford fan. It's appropriate for the year we've had and our quarantined Christmas.

About RockCandybyHelen

Sales 201

On Etsy since 2008

pearls & gemstones on leather bracelets
Le Cadeau - whimsical images under resin
Briey Poste - vintage postage stamps under glass
Remake/Remodel: vintage components
Art Pendant - original artwork by Jon langford

delightful jewelry, hand made in Chicago

I launched Rock Candy by Helen in 2005, first showing jewelry at artist studios and group shows, then opening up an Etsy shop in 2008. It took a while for me to commit to Etsy.

During that time distinct jewelry lines have evolved: Le Cadeau (whimsical images under resin) & Briey Poste (vintage postage stamps under glass). I also collaborate with my husband, musician & artist Jon Langford, to create unique and affordable art pendants. In addition to the ready-to-wear lines, I also make bespoke pieces using pearls & gems and upcycled vintage treasures.

Each piece of jewelry is designed and individually hand-crafted by me in my Chicago studio.

In 2010, Rock Candy by Helen won the “Designer of Distinction” award.
