Cmd Showroom

We’re thrilled to show you a sneak peek of our new collection, FORTH BY COLLEEN MAUER DESIGNS. Inspired by the four sides of a square, this collection celebrates angles and rounded edges. Look out for its official debut next month at NY NOW. We’re frequently asked about our design process, and we’re happy to share […]

We’re all about staple pieces that transition through the seasons along with our wardrobe. Mixed metals tend to go with just about everything, and when it comes to summer months nothing tops off an outfit like airy, oblong hoops. These earrings rarely leave our lobes from June through September. Whether we’re out for a night […]

The post Hoops in the Summer appeared first on Colleen Mauer.

Summer may not (quite) be here, but recent sunshiney days have us dreaming of long warm nights draped in layered jewelry and breezy fabrics. No matter what the climate, squared rings and hammered bangles are always in season. The 4mm  + 5mm square oxidized rings, shown above, are similar in design but vary in width. Our dark […]

As loyal CMD fans know, we’re proud to operate on with a very strong and unique team of women.

We’re grateful to spend each day working with our hands and stretching our creativity. The benchmark of Colleen Mauer Designs is hand-crafted design, and our pieces take many forms—quite literally and figuratively—from sketches on a pad to finished jewelry. While every project is different, the dedication, attention to detail and, of course, love, that’s poured […]

The post A Day in the Life appeared first on Colleen Mauer.

Mother’s Day is a celebration of the most special people in our lives: those who dole out maternal advice, moms to fur-babies, first-time moms, great-grandmas, our best friends and, of course, our own mothers. We like to think nothing makes all the above smile more than an unexpected and shiny treat. This year, we have […]

The recent rainy San Francisco weather has us daydreaming of shiny, happy hues. Specifically, stunning silver and gorgeous gold. To cure the drizzling blues, we heartily recommend a swipe of pastel nail polish and a smattering of mixed metal jewelry. CMD over-the-knuckle mid-rings are a unique complement alongside a squared stack. And of course, no matter […]

The post All Layered Up appeared first on Colleen Mauer.

CMD runs on women power, and we’re all the stronger for it. We were delighted to spend the last few days at our New York production studio, all the way across the coast from our San Francisco HQ. While we may span time zones, our common passions, worth ethics and respect for one another keep us […]

Stacking rings high and proud is a signature aesthetic of CMD. Our vast array of styles can be mixed and matched endless ways: from the most comfortable square digits you can ever imagine; to midi “upper siders” meant to be worn above the knuckle (or on a pinkie); to the thick slabs of metal in […]
