Erin Gallagher Gives a New Name to Jewelry
They say that “clothes make the man.” Perhaps the other half of that should be “but accessories make the woman.” After all, what good is a great outfit if you have nothing to complement it with? Luckily for you, Chicago-based designer Erin Gallagher has opened a shop of her very own.
Gallagher’s designs and creations have been featured in boutiques around the city for years, but now she has her very own store where you can check out her earrings, bracelets, rings, necklaces, and more. In the front section of the shop, you’ll find the designer’s collection of ready-made jewelry, including elegant, modern 18K gold pieces and vintage accessories with rare stones. Each design is given a feminine name, from “Ginger,” a long loose necklace featuring quartz, coral, and citrine, to “Lilly,” a pair of fire opal earrings.
In the back of the boutique is a customization area, where you can work with staffers to create your own custom piece. Choose from hundreds of chains and stones, and the signature design will be delivered to your door in two weeks. You’re guaranteed to find something spectacular even for the most difficult to please.
Perhaps best of all, everyone there is an absolute gem to work with.
