About Me
Hi, I’m Donna. Welcome to my shop! I’ve been creating since I can remember, with early memories of painting and making things. I’m fascinated by early medieval and celtic history, especially social history and the aesthetics of western medieval, anglo saxon, viking, and celtic designs.
I like to add a touch of medieval design to my style; a nod to history within the contemporary. I wanted a specific kind of updated yet firmly medieval inspired choker necklace- so I created one. After several designs, I settled on a sturdy, classic design that is as much a nod to the present as it is to the past. A new relic was born.

I have been adorning and adjusting my clothing and jewelry all of my adult life. I live in South Philly, where my husband and I share the couch with two cats. You might see us enjoying craft beers around town or out watching live music. I love visiting historical sites, especially early to late medieval locations. I feel a connection to the design and feel of medieval architecture and design.
