The expressive, playful designs of local jeweler Tabitha Hamilton, aka the Native Dream, potentially present a match for everyone on your gift list. Their handmade wares range from dainty pendants displaying astrologically aligned stones like lapis and amethyst, to chunky, freshwater pearls mixed with on-trend colorful, childhood-inspired beads. Extra points for excellent descriptions like “tender-yet-hardcore-with-a-touch-of-kink” for a minimalist stainless steel necklace. Shop the inspiring designs of Native Dream on Instagram, their website, or one of their frequent appearances at Austin markets.
