2010 Olympic silver medalist Jennifer Heil showed off her new hardware during the unveiling for the Jennifer Heil for Birks jewelry collection. Though the line was officially launched last fall, Heil debuted two new additional designs, stackable bangles and rings, that will be added to the range.
Though Heil was highly touted as a gold medal favorite, the freestyle skier won silver. Funnily enough, the Jennifer Heil for Birks collection is all made of silver. Birks gave Heil carte blanche in creating the line, which was inspired by the five qualities that Heil deems necessary for Olympic success: focus, team, joy, dream and courage.
