It makes sense that the friendship dynamic can spark creative impulses. In the case of Brooke Garber Neidich and Carey Lowell, it led to a breathtaking collection of jewelry, which launched exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman in early November.

Garber Neidich and Lowell have long had a mutual admiration for each other. Lowell is a collector of Sidney Garber jewelry, while the CFDA member collects Lowell’s ceramics.

The spark came when Garber Neidich saw Lowell’s ceramic mobile, then reached out to Onna House founder Lisa Perry – also a CFDA member – who had shown Lowell’s work in the gallery and collective devoted to women artists.

“As soon as I saw Carey’s mobile, I thought, this is jewelry,” Garber Neidich said. “When I found out they were goddesses, it made sense to me. With her graceful strength and creativity, Carey is the archetype of a goddess.”

The collection of 18 pieces features necklaces, earrings, pendants, and rings in 18-karat gold, ebony, ceramic, and diamonds.  It is inspired by ancient goddess figures and rounded feminine forms,

“I became interested a few years ago in pre-history and the origins of female power,” Lowell said. “Some of the shapes are goddesses and some are things I love. They express the organic female form—curved, rounded, and fecund—and represent life force and regeneration, rebirth, and fertility. I made them as a celebration of womanhood and femininity.”

The Carey Lowell x Sidney Garber collection is showcased at Bergdorf Goodman through November 30^th  and also at Bergdorfgoodman.com. it is also available at Sidney Garber on Madison Avenue.

Stay tuned for more partnerships between Garber Neidich and female artists. We can’t wait!
