An Epic Birthday Celebration !!

The dual Pendant concept was born of a collaboration with another great client.  Thank you Marcy!
  
 With three locations commemorated on these pieces from far corners of the earth.
From a foot race in California to the Eiffel Tower Paris all the way back to their island Oasis in Kailua Hawaii.  Story below !! 


Celebrating a milestone birthday (we won't say which) with trips to Paris and San Francisco (it was a big milestone and a T shirt just wouldn't do!) we worked with the team at Latitude Designs to craft a pendant that would mark the occasion. The pendant turned out so well that we also commissioned one of our home town, Kailua - and now have a nice gift that serves as special treat for send off parties ... (so they never forget where their friends are) special occasions (to mark the spot)... and to commemorate some very fun events in special locals.

Latitude Ring !! Sterling silver Rhodium Plated



Thank you for the beautiful ring that you created for Allen. He really loved it
as a birthday gift and reminder of our first meeting place. We met for the first
time nine years ago in the cereal aisle of the Pali Safeway.


The Latitude ring you designed was perfect. I feel honored to be the owner of an
original piece from JB designs. I look forward to owning another Latitude
original piece. Maybe one commemorating our engagement. Thank you Jimmy.

Another Latitude Moment in time Key Tag

Wow !!  What an amazing time and place dedication.
Thank you !! 


It was an amazing moment on the dance floor with a person who, from the first time we met, it felt as if we had just always known each other – on the deepest level.  I’m certain that somewhere in time we not only knew each other, but we loved each other. Funny how you meet thousands of people in life, but then you meet a certain someone who instantly touches your heart in a place you didn’t even know existed and life will never be the same. So this key tag is a gift to remind that certain someone of a special moment we shared in Music City - on the dance floor at Legends in Nashville, Tennessee.  It was a full house that night, but at that moment in time, we were the only two people in the world.

The Latitude Key Tag has arrived !!

This Key Tag is a new item.  The location is a secret... until we receive instructions from the person gifting it : ) Story Below !! 

Hammered finish on one side.


 It takes a while to find someone that just gets you.  The one who knows what your thinking before you say it...the one person that when you look into their eyes, you see them 30 years from now.  This is where I met that person..the one who  just got me....Sperry's in Franklin TN.

Montaj 9

A gift for the owner of Montaj 9 Video production company. Honolulu Hawaii.
 Check out the great Story below !!  Thank you.

 
After years of giving the obligatory bottle of white for Christmas and birthdays, I decided it was time to get my boss something special. It's hard for me to tell him just how much I love my job and how thankful I am to be working at our small company of three. Most of the time he's my partner, but sometimes he's my boss, sometimes my older brother, much older brother, sometimes my mentor and all too often my tormentor.  My boss wraps a urban, edgy style around his core of genuine warmth. He can be cordial and a touch chivalrous which catches the attention of women young and old. A year ago he took up sailing and jumped in head first with a transpac crossing from Hawaii with the intended destination of Washington. He did make it back but with one less life. The cuff was a perfect gift with it's latitude engraving, just in case he gets adventurous again. Together we customized it to layer in perfectly with his rugged exterior. He wears it everyday and it makes a clanking sound against another bracelet alerting me to his approach.
