VMFA Shop

Early in her career, artist Valerie Sanson worked as a fashion coordinator for Richmond’s famed Thalhimer department stores. The retail experience she gained there, coupled with her own creative bent, later drove her to open one of the most imaginative home accessory and gift boutiques in Richmond: Lane Sanson. Her love of fashion soon inspired her to create “Painting with Stones,” an inventive line of necklaces, pins, rings, and cufflinks. “When wearing my jewelry,” Sanson says, “you simply can’t have a bad day!”
