But in the flesh? Jewelry designer Ariana Boussard-Reifel is living in Montana, baby. With an actual baby her newborn, Anaya, who arrived in August. In fact, it was Anaya’s impending arrival that prompted Boussard-Reifel and her husband to abruptly leave New York City last March. The gravity of the pandemic had begun to engulf the city, and out of an abundance of caution, they moved to her parents’ ranch out West.
There, the designer built a temporary studio and set up operations so that she could maintain her jewelry design business and vintage jewelry site, Marteau, remotely (with lots of help from her associate Arielle Routhier, who’s in Brooklyn, N.Y.).
