ABOUT THE MAKER (Yup, it's me!)

Made to Confront, Not Conform

I don’t make cute shit for the sake of being cute. (even though some of it is super cute!)
I make sharp things. Real things. Truth-wrapped-in-metal things.

This shop was born out of rage, love, and not staying quiet anymore.

Every piece present or future—book, jewelry, art, custom work—is designed to make you feel something.

Maybe even see something you’ve been avoiding.

I don’t care about trends. I care about truth.
About waking people the hell up.
About calling out the rot dressed up as patriotism.
About beauty that bites back.

If you're looking for dainty and polite—this ain’t that.
But if you want something raw, intentional, and real as hell... welcome.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

If you read this, we’re already getting along better.

Got questions? Cool. Got opinions? Keep 'em.
This is where I answer the stuff people ask most so I don’t have to repeat myself or pretend to be customer service Barbie.

Yes. This picture is photoshopped.

Is this real metal?

Yes. I don’t play with garbage. Materials vary by piece - check listings for details.

Is this real leather?

Absolutely not. I don’t wrap my art in dead animals. I like furry babies alive and thriving, thanks.

Can I wear this every day?

Most pieces are made to last, but don’t shower in them or wrestle bears. Be a little gentle.

Can I request a custom item?

If you want something personal, powerful, or just weirdly you, hit me up. I don’t do boring. If things align, I'd be happy to attempt a custom piece for you.

Why does it cost what it costs?

Because it’s handmade. With my hands. By a woman with bills, talent, and no interest in being undervalued.

Do you accept returns?

Only if something arrives broken. I don’t do “changed my mind” because I don’t mass produce regret.

How long does shipping take?

Usually 5–10 business days depending on the piece and my life. If something’s custom or life’s a little messy, I’ll keep you posted. Not to mention, I have little to no faith in the USPS. So once it is in their hands, you and I shall wait with bated breath.

Do you ship outside the U.S.?

Not yet, but I’m working on it. Stay tuned or join the mailing list for updates.
