COLLECTED OVER TIME
Some things are chosen.
Others find you.
Objects that carry a story.
Not decoration.
Presence.
You feel it before you understand it.
And once it's yours,
it becomes a part of you.

CURREY & CO COLLABORATION
Shannon Koszyk's aesthetic is edgy, sexy, dark and dangerous, yet it appeals to a wide range of jewelry and design devotees.
As with her jewelry designs, Shannon's lighting is multi-layered and peppered with historical and religious symbols. Her new products are both ethereal fantasia and ruggedly tough with a strong rock 'n' roll influence.
Seattle based Shannon Koszyk, best known for her eponymous line of iconographic jewelry beloved by rock stars and starlets alike (Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’s Rooney Mara are fans), is about to see (or make) her name in lights. The jeweler debuted a lighting collaboration with Atlanta-based home furnishings manufacturer Currey and Company at North Carolina’s famed High Point Market. Koszyk uses wrought iron, aged brass, cut crystal and chain in her designs, which verge on gothic, but would be right at home in a range of décor where a touch of drama is called for.

Currey & Company has announced it will collaborate with Seattle-based jewelry designer Shannon Koszyk on a new collection of lighting and accessories that will be "a totally new look for Currey," according to a press release.
Koszyk describes her aesthetic as a contrast of luxury and grit – heirloom jewelry deconstructed and weighty – inspired by architecture, history and music. According to the press release, "Fashion plays a big part in Shannon’s design, from the tailored look of Ralph Lauren to the discreet opulence and timeless beauty of Alexander McQueen."
Koszyk first came onto Currey & Company’s radar when she ordered unadorned chandelier frames from company President Brownlee Currey. When she placed her second order for chandelier frames, Currey asked to see her lighting designs. Impressed with what he saw, he asked Koszyk to create designs for Currey & Company.
"It is amazing to collaborate with a company willing to take real chances," Koszyk said. "I am so excited to be working with Currey on a collection that encompasses a specific look that is currently unavailable in the home furnishings industry and making high design with an edge accessible."
