Client Looks: Tracy

We are all huge fans of charm bracelets and clusters of charms, so our eyes lit up when we saw Tracy's charm necklace. She made it herself from various keepsakes, heirlooms, and a few Metier pieces: the Cathy Waterman dreamer charm and fossilized coral shell and antiques. Such a great idea and easy way to show off a collection of special baubles.

Annual Metier Holiday Dinner!

Time has come again for one of our favorite Metier traditions- our holiday dinner! We celebrated last week at our perennial favorite, Bar Jules in Hayes Valley, with a pile of presents, tasty homemade treats, and lots of laughs.

Jessica Boncutter and her awesome staff always serve up some tasty dishes while we exchange gifts and schmooze. We toasted with elderflower Proseccos to another successful year- our 20th birthday, launch of the website, and the new members of the team: Iju, Holly, Lindsay, and Monica T! And of course, no dinner is complete without our favorite desserts- chocolate nemesis cake and a lemon lavender tart!

Happy Holidays, everyone and cheers to 2012!
The pretty present pile!
