String Us Along

Aurelie Bidermann Jewelry

The free airline ticket to anywhere? Only if you’re flying on the third Wednesday of an even month. And the free hotel upgrade? Hope you’re enjoying that fifteen-year subscription to Cat Fancy.

You’re no fan of strings — unless they’re attached to the adorable charms in Aurelie Bidermann’s collection of playful, delicate jewelry that embodies the French designer’s Art of Happiness ethos perfectly with pint-size, childlike pendants that would make the most discriminating jewelry connoisseur coo.

Like an artistic box of Lucky Charms, there are elephants, dragonflies, frogs, turtles, and even four-leaf clovers, in everything from topaz to mother-of-pearl, hung on colorful string. Or, for a fancier affair, Bidermann also clusters charms on thin chains in both necklace and bracelet form.

No strings attached.

Available at Alchemist, 438 Lincoln Road (305-531-4653). To see styles, go to aureliebidermann.com.
