Description

Boxed and packaged Gift Card.
Sparkling and eclectic, a trip to Mahri is energizing. Phenomenal jewelry designs by award-winning artist & master goldsmith Marianthe “Mahri” Anagnostis Bode, with new pieces arriving almost daily, are combined with gorgeous, classic-with-a- twist clothing.  A variety of toys and gifts from fun to fabulous also grace the shelves, allowing every age group to enjoy the experience.    

Just as a painter uses color to create a beautiful image on canvas, Mahri uses colored stones and metal to design her wearable works of art.  While Mahri’s art is sophisticated and the clothing, toys, and gifts are of the highest quality, the store itself is the antithesis of a high-brow atmosphere. Instead, the environment is warm and welcoming, accessible to everyone with every price point covered. All of our jewelry is hand made by Mahri, so we are able to customize any piece, as well as re-invent your personal jewelry! She has an extensive education in fine arts and studied jewelry design at Syracuse University, Skidmore College, and Indiana University. With more than 40 years of creating limited edition pieces, Mahri—who is also a Master Goldsmith and one of the founders of the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C.—has produced a stunning collection of distinctive jewelry.  
The design of the jewelry is just one part of the process. Mahri loves introducing a patron to the correct piece of jewelry, believing that each adornment must work with the body in both comfort and design. If a bracelet, necklace, or ring is the correct color, form, and proportion for the wearer, it will positively transform the person’s overall image.      With experience at the renowned Bergdorf Goodman in New York City, Mahri’s daughter, Aimee Bode Konevich, has become an integral part of the shop as partner and, most recently, the apparel buyer. Mahri’s husband, Bill, is also an essential component, providing technical assistance and accompanying Mahri on stone purchasing excursions.           
Our two Massachusetts locations ensure patrons conveniently find what they’re looking for. Surrounded by unparalleled beauty and socioeconomic diversity in the Old Town of Marblehead and the quaint downtown of Manchester-by- the-Sea, Mahri appropriately reflects the locale.  Our store information is located on the bottom of the page under locations.
