dream academy

madame de pompadour

if tales of gallant knights and their ladies-in-waiting make you swoon, click over to the newly opened etsy shop of le reve brise, a collection of utterly romantic jewelry evocative of eras past. honolulu designer roxanne iglesia (who just so happens to be the sister of hazelnut cottage creator jan avellana) finds inspiration in everything from the opulent beauty of the renaissance to the ethereal brilliance of starry skies to create her poetic collection.

entirely self-taught, roxanne painstakingly crafts each piece by hand to create designs dripping with sparkles and delicate filigree accents. while the intricate compositions may hint of the extravagance of marie antoinette's versailles, you may be surprised to learn that many pieces are actually improvised with the materials guiding the designer to the final creation.
