5 out of 5 starsLove this pair, too. I think all my earrings are made by Alysia. Discreet and modern, and - despite being tiny - you can still notice them under long hair. Thank you!

About bluehourdesigns
Welcome!
Everything begins with sheet or wire.
We cut, form, hammer and forge metal into all of the designs you see. From beginning to end, each design is built by Norbert and Alysia, and we each have our skill-set: Alysia is the designer and does all of the solder work and finishing, while Norbert is master of the schematics of each design. His engineering background is a great asset to our work.
During the making process, each piece of jewelry passes multiple times between us and after 10+ years of making jewelry, it has all become quite fluid as we construct each piece of jewelry.
The inspiration for our name 'blue hour' comes from the French expression 'l'heure bleue', which refers to twilight. Twilight has always been Alysia’s favorite and most inspiring time of day, and it is also a vivid part of her very first memory as a child.
We are a multi-cultural family and find inspiration for our jewelry in our backgrounds and frequent travels. Alysia is also influenced by strong graphic lines and sculptural forms, which are the backdrop for many of her designs. All of this manifests into designs that embody a modern and worldly aesthetic.
