Combinist Goods was founded by Kristen Scharf on the following principles: statement jewelry should be comfortable and customizable. To make sure you stand out, the artist only produces a handful of her designs.

The Collage earrings are crafted by Scharf – the only Calgarian finalist at the 2021 Etsy Design Awards. These lightweight multi-coloured acrylic earrings are minimal and bold. The posts and ear nut are gold-finished, stainless steel, nickel safe and free of cadmium and lead.

Combinist Goods offers a range of ready-to-wear pieces. Shoppers can also mix and match jewelry parts from different designs and Scharf will combine them to create an individualized piece – your own “collage.” Combinist’s earrings are produced by the artist herself from design to shipment.

Earring sizes range from small to extra-large and if you’re not in a colourful mood, check out the company’s matte black collection. Or, maybe you want an eye-catching necklace instead. Find them online at Combinist Goods or in person at trendy staple Purr Clothing.

The Etsy Design Awards reward creativity, utility and “wow” factor. This award program celebrates Etsy sellers from all around the world. Winners of the Etsy Design awards will be announced by the end of August.
