Who We Are

Like the human spirit, stones are permeable. Each stone brings out those spaces in the spirit that have been drained and help enhance what is naturally within.

Dana Blair, just opened her first retail boutique in NYC. It is located at 112 West 17th Street and is open 7 days a week.  Monday thru Thursday 11am-7pm, Friday and Saturday 11am-8pm and Sunday Noon-6p.

Dana started designing jewelry in July of 2002. She always enjoyed creating gifts for family and friends with each person’s personality and aura in mind. Later that summer after designing a necklace for her mother interest in her jewelry rapidly began to grow. Dana Blair Designs was officially created that fall. Every piece is handmade and completely original. In July 2006 www.danablairdesigns.com was launched and 3 to 4 collections per year are available online.

Dana Blair Designs was started as a custom business. Dana knows that one size does not fit all. Bracelets and rings come in many different sizes. And most necklaces come on various length chains and the stones can be individualized as well. Go to the custom order page on this site for more details.

Who We Work With

Dana Blair Designs works with other small businesses.  The collections can also be found in boutiques throughout the US as well as through private sales and parties.

For many years, DBD could be found in department stores Henri Bendel in NYC as well as Bloomingdale’s flagship store in NYC.  

We also currently work with non for profits, donating jewelry and store experiences to help raise money for each cause or specific initiative. 

 

Giving back has always been very important to Dana Blair. As a child she stated donating part of her allowance to St. Jude research hospital and continued that spirit to help while assisting as a volunteer on bringing the NY chapter of Habitat for Humanity to the NYC area.

Giving Back

Dana Blair Designs donates jewelry to various non-profit organizations for fundraising events. One most important organization to her is the Brooke Jackman Foundation, Inc. Brooke, 23, perished in the World Trade Center attacks on September 11, 2001. Her goal was to go to graduate school for social work and help underprivileged children through education. Her family wanted to see her spirit and compassion for those in need live on, and her vision fulfilled. This foundation brings tools for literacy through programs and events including “Brooke’s Book”, a program incorporated into the summer camp Goddard Riverside Community Center in NYC. Also the foundation sponsors scholarships at high school, donates books to school libraries, and donates toys for children to social service agencies. To learn more please go to www.brookejackmanfoundation.org.

Other organizations include: The Celiac Foundation, the American Cancer Society, Habitat for Humanity, The Food Bank For New York, Island Harvest amongst others.  If you have an organization close to your heart we would like to hear about it.  Please contact us through the form.

For the month of March we will be donating a portion of our sales to The Celiac Foundation.
 
I have Celiac Disease.  It affects my daily life on a much larger scale than I could ever imagine. I must watch closely everything I put into my body. This means a strict Gluten Free diet. Even a trace of gluten will affect me severely. Even a tiny amount will cause me to become immobile.  It is frightening for me as well as anyone that is around me at the time.  I can not speak or move.  Last week a restaurant I ordered from said an item was gluten free and it was not.  1 week later I am still recovering from the brain fog and pain.  If you have someone in your life with celiac disease please know that although you cant see this disease on the outside, it is internally effecting how they function.  The symptoms can present themselves in various ways, all painful and exhausting. I have written more about this in my blogs section and happy to send to you directly if you send me a message.
