We've never been particularly graceful, so we generally steer clear of jewelry that can't handle being roughed up. But we might be persuaded tocan put our bull-in-a-china-shop tendencies on check considering how beautiful these porcelain pieces are. A collaboration between porcelain manufacturers Nymphenburg and jewelers Ted Muehling and Patrik Muff, the collection is based on a tradition that has its roots in the 18th century when ladies would exchange small porcelain trinkets as a sign of mutual respect. Muehling and Muff put a modern spin on this age-old custom, turning out organic seed-pod pendants, gothic skulls, and sculpted angel wings. Pick up your own porcelain trinket at Tomas Maier.
