NOW NOW NOW!!!
Hey there dude!
TUT joined the movement on June 20th 2018 by adding this new 'Now' page to the website. This page is dedicated to curious Tigers (new and existing ) who wish to know... WTF is Shantell doing right right NOW NOW??
As her priority shifts, this page will be updated.
In The Studio...
JAN 2020 - Shantell doesn't want peeps to just rely on pictures to make good buying decisions on which earring will be the best for their lifestyle. Right Now she producing one short demo video for each item.
Collaborating...
JAN 2020 - Making Caribbean inspired jewellery readily available is an ongoing mission. This month Shantell is busy selecting + contacting Retail Buyers/ Retail Stores to help distribute TUT earrings, so women can shop online + offline for what they love at their convenience.
In The Studio...
Since May 2018 Shantell has been experimenting with precious metals and wood. She is neck deep in that stuff, developing a brand new collection of earrings, based on our popular Bathsheba Silver Dangle earrings ( pictured above). Designing on paper and sketching begun in March. Right now Shantell is working on earring prototypes. Her plans are to release this brand new collection next year.
Inspiration...
Since February 2018 ,research and development for the mood and tone of the new collection has led Shantell down a rabbit hole of indigenous symbols used as communication by Tribes of the Caribbean, facial tribal markings, surviving tribes of Dominica, Trinidad and the interplay between movement and geometry. She has pulled these images together to form colour + inspirations boards, which are a constant reference point through out her design process.
Tuned in ....
Before diving into studying info + researching images for this design brief, Shantell curated a playlist of music. It's a regular working practice of hers. A playlist aids focus. Its a nice reminder of her design intentions , and the feelings she wants the whole collection to evoke. Right now Shantell is wining up she waist to this playlist on Soundcloud as she works in the studio.
Stay Updated....
As Shantell works on this new collection of earrings, she would to love keep you updated on her progress, to show you the images from her mood boards and give you a closer look at her sketches + designs.
