Giveaway: Illustrationist x The Silent White
“Every particular in nature, a leaf, a drop, a crystal, a moment of time is related to the whole, and partakes of the perfection of the whole.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
Katja de Vries, a young jewelry designer and talented illustrator from Gent in Belgium makes possibly one of the most interesting yet simple jewelry on Etsy. Her pieces come in different states of oxidation and sometimes with thin threads wrapped around. The rings have a very clean-cut thin design and her Herkimer Diamonds come both with and without inclusions (tiny, natural drops of oil or water inside the crystal which make him unique, read more). You won’t find any unnecessary embellishment in her whole collection but a nice, subtle trace of raw manufacturing. It didn’t take long to fall in love with her minimalistic, simplistic jewelry and I bought myself my favorite pieces: the Herkimer Diamond Mini Loop Earrings and necklace. I decided to team up with her and this is how this giveaway was born! Additionally if you want to check out Katja’s etsy store (here), she offers a 10 percent discount for all readers (valid until the 17th of october). Just use the code: TSW10
One lucky winner (worldwide!) will be chosen to receive a Illustrationist Herkimer set with necklace and loop earrings along with a set of illustrations from Katja and my 3 Top Beauty Favorites (Embryolisse, Lush It Started with a Kiss tint and H’Suan Wen Hua hair conditioner, basically my holy grail)
