Graceful by Design. Functional by Nature.

Some hand-painted earring holders just feel right the moment you see them. The Aida is one of them — a flowing, symmetrical floral pattern hand-painted on our signature fiberglass screen and set in a hand-distressed black frame. It’s the kind of piece that looks like it belongs on your dresser, not hidden in a drawer.

It has been our best-selling design for good reason. Women who love beautiful things and wear their jewelry every day find exactly what they’re looking for in the Aida — something that keeps their earrings organized, visible, and ready to wear, while adding a genuine piece of original art to their space.

The Art Behind the Design

Every Aida 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.

No two pieces are ever quite identical. That’s not a flaw — that’s the point.

The Aida design draws on the flowing botanical motifs that have defined American folk art for generations — symmetrical, graceful, and endlessly satisfying to look at. It’s the kind of pattern that feels both timeless and fresh, equally at home in a traditional setting or a modern one. Whether you discover it at one of our shows or find it here online, the reaction is almost always the same — people stop, look closely, and reach for it.

The Frame

The black distressed finish is applied by hand in our Michigan studio — a deliberate process that gives each frame its own weathered character. No two frames look exactly alike. It’s the kind of finish that looks like it has a history, even when it’s brand new.
