If grace had anything to do with balancing a book on your head, we’d be in big trouble.

Luckily, real poise always includes a little lilt.

And that’s precisely the attitude behind Sway Jewelry.

The collection’s dangly earrings — detailed gold hoops with turquoise beads, blue topaz filigree, sleek kyanite drops paired with sterling silver — make an elegant statement without being too straitlaced. Other styles are just as pretty: necklaces crafted of coral and interlaced with sunstone, plus one-of-a-kind pieces made from refashioned vintage pendants and pins.

There are looks to suit every mood; the pieces have a way of loosening up a stuffy ensemble or giving an ethnic edge to a buttoned-down outfit.

You might say they bring balance to your wardrobe.

While, of course, keeping a little sway in your step.
