I have been procrastinating lately and I apologize, especially since I’ve been keeping two lovely and talented jewelry designers to myself. Without further adieu I’d like to introduce you to Shlomit Ofir and re-introduce you to Shamila Jiwa who has been a Little Willow favorite since 2007 when she first graced this blog.
Shlomit Ofir is from Tel Aviv, Israel and finds inspiration for her collection of gold and silver jewelry from the simplicity of nature. You’d never know she has a degree in Industrial Design by the delicate lines of her work. I like that her pieces aren’t fussy and could be worn everyday. Lucky for you Shlomit is easy to find on Etsy and she has a lot of items to choose from. In fact it was almost impossible for me to decide which images to showcase since she has so many pretty designs!

Then we have Miss Shamila Jiwa. Born in Tanzania and influenced by her passion for travel and her ethnic heritage she constantly astounds me with her beautiful designs. Her latest collection, “A Thousand and One Nights” includes these custom cut tear-drop earrings of stunning gemstones. Shamila has a talent for choosing the most eye-catching stones and creating modern shapes that could be worn everyday or for an occasion as special as your wedding day.
**Bonus** Get $50 off an order from Shamila’s website by “liking” her Facebook page and then email her: shamila*at*shamila.com with “Little Willow” as the subject.
