Brooke Kanani Kahealani Sachs is a jewelry designer and maker. Her pieces are made by hand from start to finish, including clasps, hinges, and chains. She was trained in the lost wax method of casting, which began with her college studies in sculpture.

Many of her inspirations are derived from nature. She grew up on the beach yet also in the forest. Ever since she can remember she have been collecting natural objects that she viewed as beautiful. She now has a vehicle in which to showcase them. She is intrigued by the anthropomorphic quality of trees, the ripples in the sand that are left behind by the waves or wind, bones, shells, rocks, horseshoe crabs, seedpods, birds, animals, and many other things that we tend to take for granted in our demanding lives. The juxtaposition of these objects with the refined qualities of precious metals and stones is a way of paying homage to nature in a way that she truly sees fit. Everyone can relate to these objects, they are everywhere if we slow down for a moment and take a look around.
