Katie Hillier a British designer has worked with renowned brands like Marc by Marc Jacobs, Victoria Beckham and Luella, launched her own line of jewelry. Her brand Hillier is described by her as"Luxury with a wink", she explains “sometimes the word luxury is over used and I think for us we want to try and bring something that is considered luxury and it is luxury because it is made from a very fine material, but we don’t want to scare away a younger customer and I think when you look at our product the wink part is" tiny animals crafted in 18ct gold paperclip adrorned with precious jewels in the shape of owl, bunny, snail, dog etc.  See all the stockists here.

@ Katie I was at Target the other day and saw the owl figurines you are referring to. They are available online too. Cute!
