About the Designer
Brenda traces her minerals passion to a childhood obsession with pearls. Growing up in Dallas and summering in San Diego, she requested one for every birthday, graduation and holiday. “Each pearl was a different color and shape. No two were alike; the variations were endless, and each time I looked, I saw something new.” That discernment led her into visual merchandising, a career that began at Bloomingdales and continued at Barneys New York and I. Magnin. Among the brands she conveyed through visual display were Issey Miyake, Giorgio Armani and Donna Karan, until a shark-diving accident in Palau precipitated a pause. After two years of rehabilitation, she began designing jewelry store interiors, first for Bailey Banks & Biddle, and then for David Yurman.
Some of the minerals Brenda incorporates into her pieces are more than one hundred million years old. She marvels at the juxtaposition between the rocks’ rugged, nondescript exterior and the gleaming luster within. “You never know exactly what to expect before a rock is sliced open,” she notes; “it’s a surprise every time.” The serendipitous aspect of working this way is key to its attraction for her. “Only after cutting it do you know if there is beauty inside; a door magically opening to a whole new world.” Once the interior section is visible, she lets the unique veining, color and silhouette of the cross-section suggest what the slab will ultimately become.
