Hailey Gerrits Exclusive Trunk Show Lookbook

This collection is inspired by the calm after a storm. With sky blue, soft green, and the lingering deep purple hue that can be found on the edges of a storm cloud, these pieces show the contrast of light and dark. Hailey wanted to capture the notion of the “parting of the clouds” and the feeling of calm and serenity that comes after.

Hailey Gerrits creates jewelry that is decidedly unique. Construction with unique artisan-cut gems and aged reclaimed metals imbues each piece with an image of the past and all of its romance - fully embodying the notion of 'one of a kind'. Gerrits' collections are handmade in small batches in her studio in Vancouver BC and all materials are ethically sourced from around the globe. This culminates in the creation of collections that respect the people and planet alike; a celebration of beauty that doesn't sacrifice sustainability or style.

Gemstone Properties

Green Amethyst

The serene and calming properties of this gemstone aid one’s ability to feel at ease. It is said to reduce stress, anxiety & tension. Ancient Greeks believed Green Amethyst to be a detoxifier, using it to decorate their wine cups with the belief that it would help them stay sober and reduce symptoms of hangovers. This stone can also be used to cleanse and purify energy.

Blue Lace Agate

Imbued with the qualities of peaceful running water, Blue Lace Agate is one of the best stones for anxiety and stress relief. It soothes an overactive mind and helps inspire effective communication.
Blue Lace Agate aids in harmonizing energies and helps to explore polarities in one’s self. It reduces negative energy and can help boost immune function.

Lepidolite

Affectionately called “the grandmother stone,” Lepidolite is all about nurturing and calming energy. It inspires balance and stability and is said to help harmonize mind, body and soul. Discovered in 1861, Lepidolite was actually named for the Greek “lepidos” which means “scale” - due to it’s flaky and chalky appearance.

Freshwater Pearls

Pearls are one of the world’s oldest documented gems, used for hundreds of thousands of years for adornment. In India, it’s believed that Krishna plucked the first Pearl from the sea for his daughter’s wedding. They inspire sincerity, integrity, and truth. Pearls are often used in beauty and pharmaceutical products - as they are a great source of calcium and natural iridescence.

Umbrella Earrings

Inspired by a rainy day, the Umbrella Earrings feature hammered brass "umbrellas" with gemstone and Freshwater Pearl drops descending from vintage brass chains below.

The Austra Necklace

Back by popular demand, the Austra Necklace is now available in this season's cloudy hues. One of Hailey Gerrits' bestsellers for three straight seasons, this piece is the perfect combination of contemporary and classic with vintage & recycled brass, a menagerie of gemstones and Freshwater Pearls.

"Photoshoot days are always my favourite because they're the culmination of that creative journey. It always feels so vulnerable to share this little world that I've imagined and to invite others to crawl inside and help bring an idea to life. Collaboration almost always breeds something better and that doesn't happen without the risk of putting yourself out there. "
