As I sit and write this, weather alerts are coming in for Washington, D.C., so the kids are bracing for a snow day. I don’t see that happening, but the chill in the air suggests the weather is about to take a turn.
I’m hoping for perhaps a dusting of snow as we settle into the holiday season. There’s nothing quite like seeing the soft flurries coming down outside as the familiar sweet sounds of Christmas songs play and I dig into whatever peppermint-infused snack I piled into the cart at Trader Joe’s.
On the slightly more glamorous, less snacking-in-sweatpants side of things, a freshly fallen layer of snow packs a certain sparkle—almost, you might say, like a diamond. That’s why FoundRae’s new holiday collection, aptly called Snow Pavé, evokes it so well.
In its notes on the collection, FoundRae refers to “drifting snowflakes and the radiant joy of the season”—and, indeed, Snow Pavé is a sparkling celebration of this time of year and all that it represents to so many: the warmth and closeness of loved ones, the dreams of children and the magic that both inspires and is inspired by them, and the resilience of those who embrace the season despite life’s trials.
Designer Beth Hutchens has put her signature spin on the Snow Pavé pieces, creating each with special symbolism—which means you can find ideal gifts for a range of recipients within the collection. It features, to name a few, the butterfly, an ode to reverie, finding life’s purpose and joy; La Loba claw, a symbol of protection; and the “Velveteen Rabbit” bunny, representing love and abundance.
Snow Pavé pendants are available alone or on one of FoundRae’s ultra-covetable chains, with open links and extension chains perfect for building an enviable neckscape.(For the most jaw-dropping option, see the one-of-a-kind tanzanite Orbit chain paired with a shimmering crescent moon at top.)
Top: One-of-a-kind Orbit chain and crescent moon pendant in 18k yellow and white gold with with 14.58 ct. tanzanite and 17.11 cts. t.w. diamonds, $130,400; FoundRae
