Montreal shops: April notes

Patricia Gajo digs up edgy extras and gets model shopping advice.

Jewellery artiste Halina Carter trained as an ébeniste (that’s French for woodworker), and all of her treasures—bracelets, rings and necklaces—are literally one-of-a-kind objets d’art. After spending eight years making her trademark angular pieces in exotic dark woods (ebony, bocote and black wood), she is on a fresh path with her Iko collection (shown, from $500, ikodesign.ca), with its organic, fluid shapes in lighter tones like white oak and spalted maple.
