Half Lucid Jewelry’s Story
How did Half Lucid begin?
Half Lucid Jewelry began in 2013, when I was recovering from sinus surgery. I made a pair of tasseled earrings while I slowly healed up, and Fabio Costa from Project Runway jokingly told me that I had created some half lucid jewelry. The name was perfect! For years I focused mainly on earrings, but eventually I introduced a crown to the Half Lucid Jewelry line. It was an immediate success, and became the main focus of Half Lucid.
All pieces of Half Lucid Jewelry are made by hand by me.

Why do you make crowns?
In 2008, I suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It changed the course of my life. I lost my job, experienced years of debilitating health issues, and had to rebuild from the ground up. Going through such an intense experience at such a young age made me appreciate the importance of celebrating every day we're alive. Wear the crown. Wear the dress. Hug your loved one. Tell someone how you feel. Live each day with as much sparkle and joy as you want to.Additionally, wearing crowns feels like beautiful armor for the head, and for our precious brains.
What Makes Half Lucid Jewelry special?
Half Lucid Jewelry is a boutique jewelry brand, made entirely by Kendra L. Saunders. Half Lucid Jewelry has been featured in Vogue Korea, as well as in music videos and fashion shoots for print and digital. Half Lucid crowns are each unique by nature, and feature crystal, glass, and upcycled materials. Most importantly, they are empowering pieces made to last a lifetime, with love. Each piece is one of a kind, and made with intuitively handpicked crystals such as amethyst, citrine, Herkimer diamonds, moonstone, chrysoprase, garnet, aura quartz, and labradorite.
