meet the maker
"Every piece begins with a simple idea, a sheet of metal, and two hands."
From an early age, Rachel Barnett was drawn to the act of creating—finding joy in working with her hands, exploring materials, and discovering how simple elements could become something lasting. That curiosity eventually led her to metalsmithing, where she found a craft that combined artistry, precision, and an appreciation for thoughtful design.
Today, Rachel designs and fabricates every piece for OH LITTLE FOXES in her Texas studio using traditional metalsmithing techniques. Each collection reflects a quiet balance between modern simplicity and the imperfect beauty found in nature, creating jewelry meant to be worn often and treasured for years to come.
Crafted with intention
"Jewelry designed to become part of your everyday story."
Every design begins with raw materials—a sheet of sterling silver, a length of wire, or a carefully chosen natural gemstone—and is shaped entirely by hand. From sawing and soldering to forming, stone setting, and finishing, each stage of the process is completed in the studio with patience, precision, and attention to detail.
Working primarily in sterling silver, gold-filled metals, bronze, brass, and semi-precious gemstones, OH LITTLE FOXES embraces the subtle variations that make handcrafted work unique. Gentle hammer marks, natural textures, and the individuality of every stone are not imperfections to be hidden, but reminders that each piece has been thoughtfully made by hand.
The result is jewelry that feels timeless yet distinctive—modern, tactile, and designed to be lived in rather than simply worn.
