Former stylist Gia Bahm used to experiment with clothes. Now she’s moved onto crystals and stones as the founder of the accessories brand Unearthen, which is fast becoming known for made-to-order necklaces of rose crystal, tangerine quartz, and black tourmaline mounted in bullet casings. What prompted her to mix New Age crystal and bullets? “I just thought it would look cool,” says Bahm, whose fans include Björk, Duran Duran, Cat Power, and Mary-Kate Olsen. And then there are the properties that the various stones reportedly contain, which even rock stars might need to avail themselves of sometimes, as the designer does. “I’m a little bit shy sometimes, so I tend to wear aquamarine, as it gives me that added sense of courage,” she says.
