Heidi Gardner Jewelry

Heidi Gardner jewelry has a macabre slant to its beauty.  Pieces are modeled after a pelvis, spinal cord, skulls which are then inset with jewels.  The native New Yorker may have found her inspiration with bones and anatomy from her background as a ballet dancer.  A dancer has such intense physicality that one would definitely be aware of every bone and muscle in her body.

Her fans include musicians like Madonna and Rihanna.  Her other influences include movies like The Exorcist, A Clockwork Orange and German anatomy drawings.

See more of her work at her website.

Grange Hall - Urban Flower in Dallas, TX



Posh, chic and macabre.  Not exactly the style one would associate with Dallas, Texas.  However, if you find yourself down South, Urban Flower/Grange Hall is a must-shop store with a gorgeous collection of jewelry and home decor.  Witty porcelain skulls (with a gold tooth), delicate treatments on taxidermy, candelabras made from doll heads make an elegant addition to any Gothic home.

Intricately cast jewelry from great designers look great with your corseted fashion.  Owners Rajan Patel and Jeffrey Lee produce beautiful floral arrangements as florists, but the curated dark-tinged merchandise is chosen with a sense of humor earn them a loyal customer following.
