Gleds Arm Cuff: Behind the Name

FULL NAME: 
Sam Gledhill

WHAT DO YOU DO AT JB? 
I am the Captain of Fulfillment; a title given to me because I SHIP all the beautiful jewels to our retailers around the globe; from San Francisco to Paris to Tokyo to New York, and everywhere in between.  

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO HAVE A PIECE NAMED AFTER YOU? 
It feels FABULOUS! I've always been a fan of arm cuffs, so I'm flattered Jenny thought of me when naming this piece. 

IF YOU COULD MOVE ANYWHERE, WHERE WOULD YOU MOVE? (THIS INCLUDES IMAGINARY PLACES)
I would love to live inside a peony flower, if it were a habitable place. Specifically, a pale pink one, because, THE SMELL. Maybe I was an ant in a previous life?


CRAZIEST SITUATION YOU'VE EVER BEEN IN:
I've been a lot of crazy situations; some that might not be appropriate here, so I'll go with the time I was snorkeling in Turks & Caicos, and a shark swam right underneath me. This heart almost had a serious attack.
 

YOUR SONG OF THE MOMENT:
"F*&^ with myself" - Banks 
 

WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST EXTRAVAGANCE?
SHOES!

 

GUILTY PLEASURE?
$1 jelly shoes from the convenience store across the street from the studio. Highly recommend ;). 

IF YOU COULD INVITE THREE PEOPLE OVER TO A DINNER PARTY, LIVING, DEAD, OR FICTIONAL, WHO WOULD THEY BE?
The Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus, Andy Warhol, and Mike Myers; it would be a weird dinner.

 

FAVOURITE PLACE IN TORONTO:
I’m loving high park, lately. I recently got a puppy, and he loves to run around the trails, so I’m finding myself there a lot.
IGGY GLEDHILL, THE GRADUATE.
