Rose with Leaves Cuff | A Grateful Dead Homage
Alkemie's Rose with Leaves Cuff is their love letter to the Grateful Dead and the enduring symbolism of the Garden of Roses. Sculptural roses wrap around the wrist while intertwined leaf vines weave through the design like a living trellis. The openwork allows glimpses of skin beneath, creating depth, movement, and an organic connection between metal and body. This piece is deeply rooted in the music and culture that shaped its inspiration. Back in the late 80s, the designer's earliest days of making jewelry began in the parking lots outside of Grateful Dead shows. They were trading and selling handmade pieces on the lot, surrounded by music, art, freedom, and community. Those experiences became the foundation of everything they create today, and this cuff carries that history forward. The roses and vines feel grown rather than made, a quiet nod to the Grateful Dead’s iconic rose imagery and the magic that has always surrounded the band and its extended family.
- Made from 100% reclaimed metals incl. copper and zinc (lead and nickel free)
- Finished with a gold patina
Forged from 100% reclaimed metals in Los Angeles, husband-and-wife design team Ashley Lowengrub & Dara Gerson's unique jewelry is equal parts art and accessory. By creating new designs from existing materials in abundance, Alkemie’s mission is to translate something that would otherwise be landfill-bound into wearable art.
