Bold, edgy and fierce – Lingua Nigra jewelry is not for the timid.

and her jewelry is best described as organically funky.
brass, gold, coins, and etched sterling silver to
handcraft truly unique adornments.

OK, so Adha Zelma isn’t a person. It’s the name of the jewelry line
made by Brooklyn-based designers Cherise TrahanMiller and Sheanan Bond.
All I can say is, this is jewelry for rock stars. If you’re a lady who
wears studs and button earrings, Adha Zelma may not be for you. But if
you’re a performer at heart, if you love the kind of jewelry that a rock
star would wear, don’t look any further. Feathers, abalone, moonstone,
24 karat gold – these designers create audacious jewelry out of an
interesting collection of materials.
