About

Maria Earrings are Brass with 14k Gold Plating. Geometric Post with 3 Hoops wrapped with Multi-Colored Semi-Precious Round Stones Designed in New York by Jam + Rico: "Growing up, I was always influenced by my culture. With immigrant grandparents from both islands of Jamaica and Puerto Rico, I was always curious about their upbringing and traditions that were formed from their homeland. The most prominent inspirations were food and music in my home. A little salsa and reggae with a mix of arroz con pollo, pastelles, jerk, and curry were favorites and loves within my home. Once I got older and was able to travel to both islands, the fascination and love of my heritage grew even stronger. The colors, carnivals, art, beaches, and language all inspired me to create and design. That’s when I knew I needed to design to bring me closer to the cultural connection of my ancestors. I created Jam + Rico (Jamaica and Puerto Rico) to dive deeper into my love of designing and the Caribbean." ______________________________________ This piece is part of the NYCJW HERE WE ARE Marketplace.
