Zoe Catherine Kendall

It’s the dream, no? To wave your freak flag as high as you can without sacrificing a lick of coolness. After all, there is definitely a distinct difference between being downright scary, and just weird in a good way. Which is what sets apart Zoe Catherine Kendall’s eccentric Precious Creatures collection from other creepy jewelry. Featuring twisting oxidized silver worm pieces adorned with enameled eyeballs, the necklaces, earrings and rings have a surreal beauty to them, much like the world presented in Pan’s Labyrinth. Bizarre, yes, but oh so perfect.

Available at Kabiri.

Pamela Love

You’re the playful chick in the corner that people seek out at parties, and not because you’re always equipped with a great, not good, dirty joke. It’s because you never bore anyone with self-serving tales of how yoga changed your life, or worse yet, how you avoided a wait list and scored some item that you and the rest of the country, spotted on some trendy actress. But you can however, thoroughly analyze Donnie Darko, down a shot of Jack without wincing, and do a spot-on impersonation of Darby Crash. And as if that’s not reason enough, well, you’re scorching hot too, all dolled up in a nerdy Isabel Marant button-down shirt, crisp Built By Wendy jeans, and your wicked cool Pamela Love talon cuff.

Gold-plated cuff bracelet with three talon claws wrapping around the wrist, the piece is part of an artistic collection from designer Pamela Law filled with beloved objects that explore the darker side of nature…bird cranium pendants, deer tooth necklaces and menacing scorpion rings. But like any great love affair she doesn’t linger on the underbelly entirely, serving up sparkling rings flaunting peacocks, rams and dainty bear heads.

Available online at Cabinets of Curiosities.

Iggy & Lou Lou

Yes, you're the sort who has her radar honed for trouble in all the right places, with a life eerily resembling a live-action Nick Cave song, filled with dark dreary musings and wistful imagery. Chanel Blue Satin nail lacquer on your toes, eye make-up smudged like Polly Jean Harvey, lips painted a frosty tone that glimmers under the light of the moon, and Poppy Z. Brite's Liquor tucked under your milk and honey arm. And just like everything else, your jewelry choices are always discerning, which is why you’re destined to adore Iggy & Lou Lou's precious ceramic necklaces and pins.

Inspired by her childhood dreams of exotic travels, Australian ceramic sculptor Irene Grishin-Selzer creates keepsake pieces that marry gothic undertones with fanciful characters, cleverly playing in the same sandbox as The Smashing Pumpkins "Tonight, Tonight" video (inspired by Georges Méliès's silent film A Trip to the Moon). The collection ranges from an auburn porcelain bunny pin framed with darkened sterling silver to a maritime-flavored necklace mingling dainty anchor and bird charms. Our favorite is a sterling silver chain necklace flaunting an aged brown tiger head nestled next to a buried treasure-type coin. Lovely, lovely, lovely.
