Born and raised in Massachusetts, growing up on Cape Cod and now at home on Cape Ann, that coastal rhythm quietly shapes the things worth keeping: furniture that has been lived with and loved, aged brass softened by time, worn textiles, and honest materials meant to last. Mossy stone walls, sun faded cotton, the markings on old boat hulls, and the way time leaves its signature on everything it touches.

Living here means staying in relationship with the elements. With the right layers, you can be outside year round. Stormy winter walks, crisp fall air, and the quiet rituals that keep you grounded through the darker months.

Coastal living is not just a lifestyle. It is a way of seeing. It is about durability over perfection, warmth over polish, and collecting pieces that carry both history and a sense of soul.

That way of seeing shapes the pieces I choose for Diamonds & Rust.
