Elegant by Design. Timeless by Nature.

Some hand-painted earring holders make a bold statement. The Curlz does something equally valuable — it makes everything around it look better. Flowing black scrollwork curls and spirals across the fiberglass screen in a classic, endlessly satisfying pattern that feels simultaneously vintage and completely current. Set in a black distressed frame with warm worn edges, it’s the kind of piece that works with virtually any room, any style, and any collection of jewelry.

For the woman who wants her dresser to feel polished and intentional without a single piece fighting for attention — this is that piece.

The Art Behind the Design

Every Curlz is painted entirely by hand in our Michigan studio by artist Barbara Downey, using a process she has refined over nearly 30 years. The technique is entirely our own — part American folk art tradition, part closely guarded studio secret. What begins as a blank screen becomes something you’ll want to look at every single day.

The scrollwork pattern is painted freehand directly onto the screen — no two pieces flow in exactly the same way. No two pieces are ever quite identical. That’s not a flaw — that’s the point.

The Frame

The black distressed finish is applied by hand in our Michigan studio — a deliberate process that wears the edges down to reveal the warm wood beneath, giving each frame its own weathered character. Against the flowing black scrollwork of the Curlz design, the frame feels like a natural extension of the pattern — unified, intentional, and quietly elegant. It’s the kind of finish that looks like it has a history, even when it’s brand new.
