Au Natural

3 Doves Jewelry

You are so not outdoorsy.

Sure, you might flaunt a camo print now and then, but unless Barneys starts selling strappy, high-heel trail shoes, you simply. don’t. do. rugged.

Take a cue from Kristine and Lara Zizic, creators of 3 Doves Jewelry, and let a little bit of nature dangle around your wrist or from your ears.

The sisters convey the beauty of the natural world and the culture they encounter through their travels with elegant and organic designs of brass, copper, gold, coral, lava, and gemstones.

Their original, handmade pieces include brilliant brass bee earrings with blue goldstones; oak leaf earrings with clusters of violet freshwater pearls; cicadas made from blue goldstones and agates strung on brass chains; and gold vermeil sparrows with pearls and lapis lazuli.

They even craft beetle cuff links for your buttoned-up babe.

So you can tell that park ranger to buzz off.

Available at Stil, 170 Newbury Street, Back Bay (617-859-7845). To see styles, go to 3dovesjewelry.com.
