The Set — Eight Pieces, A to H

Do the slopes stand upright or lie flat?

Both. Every sloped piece works standing — facing the customer across a market table — or lying flat as a tray inside a case. One set covers the stall on Saturday and the cabinet the rest of the week.

The Market Table

A market table is seen from standing height, at walking speed. Flat trays show passers-by their edges; a sloped face shows them the jewelry. Bust and tower at the back, wedges in the middle, ring slopes along the front — the whole table reads in the two seconds it takes to walk past.

The Caramel

Caramel sits between beige and walnut: warm enough to flatter gold, dark enough to hide a long day of handling. Outdoors it photographs richer than beige under open sky, and the one beige piece — the bust — reads as the highlight against it.

One dye lot
Suede is dyed in batches. The caramel pieces of a set are cut from the same run, which is why they match. Pieces ordered separately, months apart, may not.

Not included
Jewelry shown in the photographs is for scale and styling only.

Why are the displays sloped instead of flat?

Because a market table is viewed from standing height by people walking past. A flat tray presents its contents to the ceiling; a sloped face presents them to the customer. The angle is the difference between a table people scan and a table people stop at.

Why is the bust a different color?

By design. The bust carries the hero necklace, and its lighter beige against seven caramel pieces pulls the eye to it first. The column is turned beech, left natural.

Is caramel practical for outdoor markets?

Yes — it is the shade we would pick for exactly that. Dark enough to hide a day of dust and handling, warm enough to flatter gold and silver in open daylight. Keep it dry: suede and rain do not negotiate.

How much jewelry does the set hold?

Two hundred ring slots between the two ring slopes alone — sixty on the small board, one hundred forty on the large. Add the ribbed slopes for rings and studs, the earring wedges, and necklaces across the wedges, the slopes and the bust.

Can I buy one piece instead of the set?

Yes. Every piece is listed on its own, and each single listing is for one piece. The complete set costs less than the pieces bought separately, but there is no minimum.

Do you supply boutiques in quantity?

Yes. Write to us with the pieces and quantities you need and we will come back with lead time and trade terms.

Is this set made in other colors?

Caramel is the color listed here. We hold fourteen suede colors and the same pieces can be made in any of them. Write to us with the shade you have in mind and we will come back with what is possible and how long it takes.
