When designer Susan Domelsmith was unable to find jewelry that reflected her own edgy, yet elegant style, she began creating necklaces for herself. These necklaces comprised of vintage chains that were reconfigured through draping, knotting, and tangling into new stylish designs. Soon thereafter Domelsmith launched Dirty Librarian Chains, which caught the attention of Austin, Texas boutique FactoryPeople who became her first retailer. To this day, Domelsmith continues to incorporate reworked vintage pieces from second-hand sources into her designs.
