What to know about Brinker & Eliza

Mother and daughter, two skill sets

Founded in 2017 by Brinker Higgins, a trained metalsmith with a decade running her own line, and daughter Eliza, who came from fashion merchandising.

Made by hand, in small runs

Pieces are assembled by hand in a Connecticut home studio and produced in limited quantities, with the pair working between there and New York.

Color and charms over restraint

The line runs to beaded and charm-heavy necklaces, layered chains, hoops and bright stone drops — statement pieces still meant for daily wear.
