AiB was originally conceived back in 2010 by me, Samantha Golden, when I was in grad school. My dream was, and is, to learn how to create beautiful jewelry that conveys how I see the world. In the study of alchemy, arsenic represents transformation, both in the physical and spiritual sense. And as a born-and-bred New Yorker, I have a special love for Rhapsody in Blue by Gershwin, a song that brings the energy of the city to life. 11 years later and with my husband, Ian Krasser, we are now working together to learn how to put my story out into the world with beautiful gems and designs. We believe that jewelry represents moments, chapters, celebrations and tragedies. We want to share our story and maybe become a small part of yours.
