Created in 2006, “Lisbeth” designer Sophie Alden, started making her unique pieces out of LOVE and because she also found it difficult to find quality items that were affordable. After creating a few pieces for herself and close friends and selling some out of local retail store “One Of Few”, the demand for Lisbeth bloomed!

The collection is comprised of mainly 14k gold fill and some sterling silver with the use of unusual stones such as caramel quartz and lava. Delicate and unique charms are added for a more feminine look. Since I am such a huge fan of mixing pieces together I appreciate the mixing of metals, like rose gold and sterling silver, in some of her designs.

Like Alden, I’m a simple girl that loves “pretty things” and her collection of jewelry is quite suited to my style sensibility. The one I dangle around my neck is called “The Natural Cluster” which is made with a mix of hand-carved vermeil charms - A single Ice Drop, Tribal Ring, Tiny Cone and a Fresh Water Pearl, all hanging from a 30 inch 14k gold fill chain that retails for $ 89 CDN.

You can find Alden’s lovely creations at these local retail stores: One Of Few, Tenth and Proper and Fine Finds. There is no website yet so I’ve taken the liberty to add some additional photos of some of my other favorite pieces.

I hope that a Lisbeth piece finds it’s way onto your neckline in the near future!
