# A TRUE STORY

In March 2017, Emma Watson wore our Dome Earrings. JOY.

But it wasn’t quite that simple. Here’s a story about our entrepreneurial feat of the year, and, a few acts of kindness we’ll never forget.

Quite frankly, we think it is spam. It’s not. Emma is about to go on the _Beauty and the Beast_ [@the_press_tour](http://sable.madmimi.com/c/11078?id=131877.1764.1.353e25b1511ea12932a8b17a654fa0bb) and will only wear sustainable fashion. Our jewelry is upcycled, fair trade, and charitable – we are selected by [Eco Age](https://www.instagram.com/p/BROlKYoh6Ck/?taken-by=ecoage) to send samples!

Minor problem. The pieces need to be in London by noon Monday but we have only one sample of the new collection Camille is presenting at a tradeshow in New York. Fast forward: it’s Friday and no carrier can guarantee timely delivery.

A big decision for a small company, less than 24 hours later, our super-intern receives the passport her parents overnight from Philly. Emily is flying to London. Just as I return from brunch on Sunday, Emily rings:

“I can’t find the box of earrings.”

I FEEL ALL THE FEELINGS. I had packed the bag. Back in the office on Friday, in the frantic process of purchasing Emily’s flight and packing, the black earring box had fallen into a black bin and become camouflaged.

I dash home and grab my passport as Gael texts flight options. There is only one flight that will ensure delivery by noon Monday. Through traffic and pouring rain, I arrive at JFK Airport breathless.
