More than a decade ago, Helen Ficalora began designing jewelry that reflects the art and beauty of nature. As a child growing up in Southampton, NY, Ficalora collected shells, sea glass, starfish, and played in fields of wild flowers. These lasting impressions of the outdoors are evident in her delightfully lively pieces. Ficalora’s collections have been featured in some major publications including Harper’s Bazaar, InStyle, Glamour, Cosmopolitan, and Real Simple.

The dainty Paw Print Charm is adorable, simple, and feminine. This 3/8” wide sterling silver circular charm contains a single tiny paw print honoring our beloved animal companions. Pair it with Helen Ficalora’s delicate 16” sterling silver chain with ring clasp to complete the look. This set is the perfect gift for any animal lover. Buy the Paw Print Charm for $35 and the 16″ Fine Silver Chain for $33 at ShopBop!
