Tie the Knot with Tilde
Join us in shop on Sunday, April 28th from 4:00 to 6:00pm as we showcase talented wedding ring and jewelry designers, a fab floral designer and some delicious offerings from our fave local wine shop. We know you’ll enjoy meeting these creatives, seeing their wares, and trying out some liquid refreshment so you can order your adornments and just the right bubbly for toasts on a special day.
Meet the designers!
Colin Kippen designs unusual, beautiful rings for men and women. These rings are textural marvels in gold, platinum, and silver (Colin calls them geologic). And, this designer enjoys working with clients to create the perfect ring for individual tastes.
Hilary Alexander (of jewelry line Lumafina) makes beautiful women’s rings using Herkimer diamonds and bands of silver or gold. Her offerings are unique, precious, and just for you.
Sahlia Jewelry Design creates what we think is the most gorgeous, drapey, edgy jewelry with a focus on special occasions like weddings. Her jewelry selections are truly the perfect accessories for both the bride and the wedding party ladies.
Our favorite floral shop – By the Bunch Flowers – is known for their unusual wedding arrangements. They’ll be on hand with sample bouquets and tons of pictures of possibilities for you to peruse.
Kevin from The Portland Bottle Shop will be pouring bubbly for us, and will be ready to assist you in choosing the perfect wine for your special day.
We’re thrilled about this fun event and hope you join us for bling, blossoms, and bubbles. See you on Sunday, April 28th at Tilde!

Tasi Trunk Show
One of Tilde’s favorite jewelry designers visits our shop this Saturday and Sunday, March 16th & 17th for her 4th annual trunk show. We love her, you love her. This is your chance to meet her. She’ll be here each day from 12-3! And best of all – Tasi Designs will be 20% all weekend.
The Tasi’s Design jewelry line has remained our number one seller month after month and year after year with one-of-a-kind pieces that incorporate a sweet combination of high-quality natural stones (never dyed), sterling silver, and gold.
New for this show (and shown above) are delicate stone charms wrapped in gold and big geodes and stone slices wrapped in metal.
Takara Jewelry
The combination of fiber and metal is one of our all time favorites – unexpected and often breathtakingly beautiful. Such is the jewelry line of Takara. We were so happy to discover that one of our favorite local jewelry designers had a second line of jewelry. Totally different from her first, combining fibers in a unique way.
The collection offers a traditional Japanese braiding technique, kumihimo. Combined with natural dye processes and hand-hammered metals, amulets are bound by intricate silk cord and elemental shapes hang from gold wire. Logwood, alkanet, cutch, kamala, and sandalwood lend rich color to the fiber, articulating a vital connection to the natural world.
Takara is inspired by traditional craft techniques and meditative working processes. Each piece is handmade in a small workshop right here in Portland, OR. The artist behind Takara is Jen Goff, a West Coast native. Her travels have led her all across the world, where she has worked on farms and gardens, shot rolls of film, bypassed fancy education, studied medicinal herbs, walked hundreds of miles, sat silent in meditation, and finally settled down to make jewelry. We’re glad she did!

Iskin
Gabriela Iskin is a young Brazilian designer residing in Buenos Aires. Her unique collections explore the collision and interchangeability of color, form, and material, with pieces that can be turned, twisted, and popped into different shapes. Creativity, imagination, and innovation are key themes of Iskin.
Adhering to a belief of “playing as in childhood,” these versatile pieces can be worn differently according to one’s mood. She creates jewels that stimulate our imagination by combining art and design. We instantly fell in love with these necklaces, cuffs, and rings that can be worn in a variety of ways. Each piece includes alternate colors or metals to change up the look of the jewelry. How cool is that?
One purchase becomes your entire jewelry wardrobe for the season! Gabriela’s designs are simple and modern. The geometric flair and shapes offer elegance and originality.

Oliotto leather cuffs
These soft, colorful leather cuffs are easy to wear, well crafted, comfortable, affordable, and unique. Made by Trilby Hainstock of Oliotto in Seattle, Washington, we love that these cuffs are also reversible.
Two pieces of jewelry in one! These cuffs are inspired by vintage footwear and the way elemental shapes wrap around the body. The cuffs come in a range of size: either slender and sleek or bold and wide. Either way, they make a statement. These small streamlined sculptural pieces can stand on their own! All cuffs are made with quality up-cycled leather.

Sahlia Jewelry Design
We always get into trouble when visiting Sahlia’s jewelry studio, and this time was no different. Sahlia continues to create new, beautiful, edgy jewelry and, as we were in her studio to pick out new pieces for Tilde, we quickly realized that we were on the verge of getting thrown into Jewelry Jail for overindulging.
Luckily, our plea that it’s ‘not for us, it’s for the Tilde shoppers!’ got us released in time to bring this new assortment into the shop for all to enjoy. On this binge trip we picked up tons of her edgy bronze bangles with cool riveted silver bits placed here and there. Bangles are cool! And always lots and lots of detailed handcrafted necklaces and earrings that look great for both your fancy and hipster days. Yes, Sahlia is amazing.

Paper Wings
We know you will clap your hands when you see this new line of jewelry. And what a surprise – this cool collection is designed and made in Portland, Oregon! Jen Goff is the designer behind Paper Wings and is entirely self taught in the art of jewelry making. She apparently was quite the good student as the metal work in these necklaces and earrings is top notch.
Jen works in a light filled studio, built in the early 1900s in NE Portland. She tells us her design influence comes from primitive, ethnic jewelry, and organic shapes found in nature and cityscapes.

Yellow Owl Workshop Pendants
For those who don’t already know, Yellow Owl Workshop is a curated collection of heirloom quality goods designed by artist and author Christine Schmidt. Though the products are diverse, consistent themes of innovative function, original graphics, and bold colors emerge. Each Yellow Owl item is expertly crafted in their California studio with attention to detail, ecological awareness, and great use of premium US made materials.
This design line out of San Francisco has come out with more of their gold and cloisonné pendants we adore. We welcome four new designs – like an amazing canning jar full of vegetables! Each pendant hangs from a soldered 18k gold-dipped 30-inch chain and is individually packaged in a unique glass vial with cork packaging. Cool all the way around.

Betsy & Iya
We’ve heard you (mostly because we’ve been saying the same thing): why, oh why do we not have the local jewelry design sensation Betsy & Iya in our shop?! You are soooo right. Why haven’t we?
Betsy has been designing and creating jewelry for years, but her latest line steps her right into the Tilde atmosphere. Her ‘bridges‘ cuffs are totally A.MAZING. She’s doing all her own metal work and it’s pretty sensational. These are statement makers. This summer, we are happy to say “Why, yes! We DO carry Betsy & Iya!”
