Cmd Showroom

This is a question I get a LOT, and there isn’t really a one-size (or shape)-fits-all answer. Lots of my customers mix shapes and sizes when they’re at the ring bar, and it totally works for them. Your jewelry style and pairings should be an extension of your own style. If you’re a person who […]

One of our amazing production gals in New York was struggling with a really long commute. Even though Sam loves being a part of the CMD team, it was becoming too much (nearly 1.5 hours/day, which we all know is not a very good quality of life). After some team brainstorming and good planning meetings, […]

During this crazy time of year, I try to stop sometimes and just watch it all happening. The New York production team is making and shipping jewelry at record levels, and it just makes me so proud.  The San Francisco sales team is working with all of our customers to make sure that their holiday […]

I know how overwhelming it can feel to purchase a piece of jewelry for someone else.  Will they like it?  Does it suit them? Your head might be spinning, but I’m here to help. When shopping for someone else, I recommend thinking about the following: What type of style does she have?  If she leans […]

The post How to Buy the Perfect Jewelry Gift appeared first on Colleen Mauer.

I’m a creature of habit and I get SUPER attached to things that I own. I will save all my extra dollars and buy a pair of Dieppa Restrepo or Freda Salvador shoes, then have them resoled over and over again. I also don’t mind if anyone notices that I always have the same pair of […]

The holidays are here, my friends.  I know…that was quick.  I’m so excited to be popping up around The Bay at some of my favorite partnered shops for a few special CMD Holiday Trunk Shows.  I will personally be at each event, and I’d love the opportunity to show you my work—and get to know […]

    People often walk up to the Ring Bar, try on a few, and ask me, “Can I mix these together?” They’re talking about the different metals: rose gold, yellow gold, black (oxidized) and silver. It’s a really common question, actually. While you might not want to hear this, it truly comes down to […]

You may have heard the big news, but in case you haven’t: FORTH by CMD has made its official debut! I’m thrilled to share this inspiring collection with you. I drew inspiration from many different places: the four sides of squares and rectangles; towering metropolitan skylines; deliberately angled lines and soft, subtle edges. This collection is […]

After several delightful weeks on the East Coast, I’m happy to be home in San Francisco. In honor of my return to the Golden State, I’m showing some love for my favorite pieces of the yellow and rose gold variety. Craving something on the simple side? Our mini square studs look fabulous in a second […]
