An afterglow emerges at the onset of darkness, a luminous and opalescence. There are individuals on this earth that have attained their own afterglow, a polished radiance, an energy and style that attracts people, like an insect to light.

Charms Baltis & Benjamin Neich are the creative force behind Australian jewellery label Afterglow. Their designs are a hand-made offering of urban adornment with just the right amount of glamour and rock & roll.

AfterGlowCharms has been designing jewellery for 7 years, her knowledge and respect for the engineering of gold smithing has melded beautifully with a love for fashion and the decorative arts. She has a magical ability to blend strength and delicacy, simplicity and frivolity, fantasy and wearability. Her designs have been seen in US films with Harrison Ford, Kevin Bacon and Garett Hedlund and worn by celebrities such as Erin Wasson and Jess Mauboy.

Benjamin is a hip hop, sport loving, man's man who brings street cred and an element of simplicity into the label. He has introduced Afterglows first line of men's jewellery that has melded into some of the more androgynous pieces in their first collection Born to Fly.

Born to Fly 09/10 is a clean mix of silver, buffalo horn & pearl shell delicately hand carved into delicious creatures of flight. Eagles, hummingbirds and butterflies are suspended on chain in mid journey or dripping with fine silver and black chain, charms and pearls.

AfterGlowThe collection was inspired by long road trips along the South Coast of Australia, bright blue skies and dark, dreamy silhouettes of birds soaring above. Fantasies of the freedom of feathers and flight have been represented by flying horses, sparkling zirconias and plenty of luscious winged creatures.
