Wendy Brandes Emoji Jewelry in Professional Jeweller

October 17, 2014 by WendyB

A big thanks to Sarah Louise Jordan for including my emoji jewelry in her story called “TRENDS: Jewels go POP!” in Professional Jeweller magazine!

CLICK HERE TO READ THE STORY.

Sarah calls my pieces “wearable” and says they’re “aimed at a tech-savvy and feisty customer base.” (I agree!) In an interview, I highlighted my personal favorite:

“One of the first emoji designs I did was a middle finger. The fact that it didn’t actually exist on the emoji keyboard didn’t stop me. I created my own design because that seemed like the most important emoji of all.”

Am I right or am I right about the middle finger being the most important emoji to have? (And where the hell are the new emojis we were promised for this summer?)

Gorgeous Jennifer Gandia of Greenwich Jewelers split a pair of middle finger earrings with her friend. From her Instagram.

My most recent “they should be emoji but they’re not yet” designs are the serial-killer chainsaw and hockey mask earrings, which are perfect for Halloween. I have just a few left for October 31 delivery, so order immediately if you want them this month! (As I’ve also pointed out, that pair is great for Eminem fans and what better day to buy those than today — Em’s 42nd birthday?) I’ll be introducing two more badass emoji designs in November.

    I agree, the middle finger is definitely the most important! I really like how Jennifer (or is it her friend?) paired the dainty “bird” with the giant gold plate. No rule they both have to be small studs!

    I wish there was a Champagne glass emoji but it is not nearly as fab as your middle finger version, for obvious reasons. 😉

      I’ll have to add that to my list…
