I wanted to alert you to the news that the jewelry brand, Daphine, is sadly closing its doors after seven years. I love to support small independent brands, particularly women-owned and run, that care about the environment and the community of people they employ.
It's sad to see any independent venture having to close. Even without the sale discount they ate reasonably priced. Maybe the market is too competitive. Although it's engaging to see things online I much prefer seeing something first hand. Touching and feeling something whether garments or jewellery. I wonder if they also sold through shops? Certainly wish them well in any new projects.
Hi Jan, it is sad when a brand you like closes. I don’t know the inside scoop of why they closed but their statement was very up beat as it naturally would have to be. They deserve a lot of credit for making it to seven years. That’s beating the odds, brilliantly, for an indie jewelry brand. I have a feeling we haven’t heard the last of either one of the partners.

Thanks Jolain for letting us know. I just ordered 2 necklaces.
My pleasure! Their pieces are chic and timeless!
So sad they are closing! I wonder what's the plan... the girls are so talented!
I was sad to read they are closing. I love the look of their pieces, very sophisticated and well priced. I’ll be watching for their next move.
