Generational Love

An intergenerational piece by Vina Brown and Shirley Brown. 

This Generational Love Heart is a celebration of intergenerational healing, resilience, and the timeless beauty of cultural shapes. Inspired by the bold, statement jewelry of the 80s and 90s, these earrings blend retro aesthetics with a futuristic approach, honoring the past while envisioning new possibilities. The ovoid shape—a sacred geometric form in coastal Indigenous art—adds depth, symbolizing continuity and strength across generations. This piece is a nod to the strength of the divine feminine energy before us. 

Backed by a cedar mat that holds the love and teachings of Shirley Brown, Vina's Aunt.

Ğiáxsix̌a for supporting Copper Canoe Woman! We want to give you some tips on caring for your pieces to help ensure that you’ll be able to wear it for the years to come.

​Care Tips:

• Please treat your jewelry with care. We don’t recommend storing your jewelry in a bag/purse, unless it’s wrapped in fabric, tucked into a small jewelry bag/roll, or in it’s original packaging.
• ​Take care when putting on jackets, purses, and bags so your jewelry doesn’t snag.
• ​Try not to let your jewelry get wet, please remove before showering or swimming. Water can damage the findings, and other metal parts of our jewelry.
• ​Put your jewelry on as a finishing touch. Perfumes, sunscreens, bug sprays and various skincare products can cause discoloration or a change in texture of any acrylic pieces in the jewelry.
• ​Avoid leaving your jewelry in the bathroom, or other humid environments. Humidity causes metal to tarnish.
• ​To clean the acrylic pieces, a microfiber cloth (and a little bit of water for stubborn marks) will leave them looking brand new.
• ​To clean brass pieces we suggest mild soap and water, or a non-abrasive jewelry cleaner. Please make sure that your brass jewelry is completely dried to avoid tarnishing.
• ​Please do not use any products that contain alcohol to clean your jewelry as it can damage the finish.

​If you have any other questions, please contact us! We’re happy to help.
