When is a gold hoop more than a gold hoop? When it’s made by Toby Pomeroy (he’s the father of Portland chef, Naomi Pomeroy). It’s not that his hoops or hammered cuffs or lovely gingko leaves are startlingly different, it’s that they are made from materials that are.
Pomeroy is a pioneer in sourcing and exclusively using EcoGold and conflict-free diamonds. What’s EcoGold? Some years back, Pomeroy asked Hoover and Strong, his gold refiner and supplier, to supply him with only recycled metals that are re-purified and re-alloyed for use in his studio. EcoGold. He was the first to ask, and now it’s the fastest growing segment of their business.
Tomorrow, Friday, September 7 from 10-5, Mario’s (833 SW Broadway) hosts a trunk show of his signature designs (including gingko leaf earrings, eclipse hoops and pendants) and new work.
Sing it: “Solid Gold!”
