~ A Simple Sandy Life ~

As kids growing up on Dog Beach in Malibu, we spent our days sandy, salty, wild & free.

We made driftwood forts & crazy bonfires.

We built our own skateboards by hand with leftover wood from Malibu Lumber and we rode ‘em, barefoot, along the Pacific Coast Highway.

We always surfed with friends and freely shared the waves, joy & stoke.

On hot Fall days when the waves were firing against howling off-shore winds, our AMAZING mom could always be counted on to write a convincing note for the school attendance lady.

And, when life on dry land got a little bit too heavy, we always found refuge, serenity & healing in the sea.

With each piece we create, our intent is to share some of the pure magic of those very special times.

We hope our creations will be a reminder to us all to reconnect with that carefree little bohemian wild-child inside.

So here’s to that precious kid and to our beautiful oceans & beaches - may we cherish, respect & protect them ALL – ALWAYS!

About the Artist

Lifelong surfer & artist, Rich Michaelsen was raised in a funky little beach shack on Las Flores Beach (AKA Dog Beach) in Malibu, California.

He still lives in the area today and you can find him surfing in Malibu with his dad & brother… always mindful of what surfing is all about: connecting with the sea and sharing the aloha spirit, waves, joy & stoke with family, friends & other surfers.

All of our jewelry and accessories are designed and handmade by the beach in sunny Southern California and are inspired by a love of the ocean, surfing, and simple, sandy beach life.

We believe that objects, like people, possess and transmit energy. With this in mind, every strike of the hammer and pass of the file is done with love, positive thoughts and affirmations for health, happiness, joy, and freedom.

Thank you for checking us out and please feel free to contact us with any questions.

…even if you just feel like meeting up for a surf!
