commander's palace x sarah killen
the cheeky cherub
Rooted in Sarah Killen’s nearly two-decade history living along Washington Avenue under the oak canopies of the Garden District, this collaboration with iconic New Orleans institution Commander’s Palace is deeply personal. Over a year in the making, the inaugural piece brings one of co-owners Ti and Lally’s favorite playful traditions to life: a hand-crafted cherub wrapped in ribbon, holding a branded champagne bottle—a whimsical reminder to always find joy, celebrate life’s moments, and never forget to play.
cubs the poet x sarah killen
key word
Born from a lost heirloom and a shared love for the written word, KEY WORD merges fine jewelry with the spirit of street poetry. Celebrating New Orleans poet Cubs the Poet and his collection of vintage typewriters, this collaboration reimagines Sarah’s hand-carved signet ring—flanked by intricate etchings of Cubs’ signature pelican. Each ring holds a single letter, symbol, or character of your choice, crafted in solid gold or silver.
There are only 47 keys on a typewriter—which one will you choose to wear?

capsule collection
Created as an exclusive late-summer capsule collection for BYGEORGE’s jewelrybox shop inside New Orleans’ historic Hotel Saint Vincent, this collection marries fine craftsmanship with an approachable price point. Drawing from nature—Sarah’s eternal muse—the pieces pair genuine organic shells with hand-cast metallic shell fragments. Playing on contrasts of soft and hard, dark and light, feminine and masculine, the result is a striking study in balance and one-of-a-kind texture.
