Jewelry Trends & News

As the crisp air of fall arrives and the leaves begin to turn, we find ourselves inspired by the magic of change. At CARLA SHAW, we’re working to offer our clients a season filled with beauty, sustainability, and pure joy. Just as nature transitions gracefully, we believe your wardrobe should too — with pieces that embody elegance, meaning, and care for the planet.

Four years ago, CARLA SHAW Sustainable Jewelry was born out of a deep love for nature, beauty, and meaningful craftsmanship. What began as a dream - to create something poetic, purposeful, and lasting - has blossomed into a brand that now connects people through stories, spirit, and gilded leaves.

CBS/WBZ featured CARLA SHAW Sustainable Fashion, highlighting its unique plant-based accessories, upcoming plans, and a message for Women’s History Month.

While some jewelry is inspired by nature, every glittering accessory at Carla Shaw Sustainable Fashion in Newton Centre literally has a piece of nature at its core. 

If you could peer inside the Union Street shop’s earrings, necklaces, bracelets and rings, you’d find an individual leaf, flower, or even coffee bean that has been hand-picked, dried, and preserved in 18k gold or silver.

For her most recent post-chemo outing, Kate Middleton wore super-symbolic gold fern earrings with a hidden message. 

Ferns are commonly believed to represent new life, resilience, and endurance. This isn't the first time Middleton has used the plant to depict a hopeful message. Ferns were a motif throughout her video announcing the end of her chemotherapy treatments.
