THE BRAND Fiona Morrison created Wolf Circus Jewelry in 2011 while attending University. She began the company after purchasing a wolf head ring and noticing the discussion and compliments a simple piece of jewelry could bring. Wolf Circus is based out of Vancouver, BC and is available at a number of boutiques across Canada.

THE PRODUCT Each piece in the collection is inspired by the confidence it brings the wearer. WOLF CIRCUS JEWELRY is intended for the bold, beautiful, brainy and badass. Each piece is handmade. They are simple, yet edgy and are meant to be a cause for compliments and as well as a conversation starter. The jewelry pieces are either silver or gold and some contain various gems for accents.

The logo should most often be displayed in black and should not exceed above 0.5 pt. or below 0.3 in line weight. It’s orientation should always be presented with the two triangles pointing upwards and the one triangle pointing downwards

TYPEFACE SYSTEM Primary Sans Serif Font: Avenir Light The primary sans serif font should be used for body text when a more minimalistic aesthetic is required. This font is clean, easy to read and reflective of the WOLF CIRCUS JEWELRY brand identity. The font should always be used in the thin variation and is primarily used for the company name in the logo but is not limited to this usage.

Primary Serif Font: Baskerville The primary serif font should be used for body text when a more classic aesthetic is required or when there is a large amount of text (i.e. lengthy corporate documents and letters). This font is elegant, legible, and yet in keeping with the simple aesthetic of WOLF CIRCUS JEWELRY. The font should most frequently be used in the regular variation and semi-bold can be used to for headings and titles to differentiate hierarchy.

IMAGERY These two symbols and pattern are key graphics to be applied across WOLF CIRCUS JEWELRY touchpoints to create balance, continuity and interest. They should be used thoughtfully and only when needed.The handwritten name is most commonly placed as a signature at the bottom of the letterhead. The hand-drawn stars and other shapes are commonly placed on the event invitations for print and the composition and placement can be adjusted to compliment the given layout. These can be either black or white depending on the colour of background to which they are placed. The graphic on the bottom is used to create cohesiveness among the touchpoints and fluidity within the colour palette. This is most commonly used masked on the back of the business cards, in the printed event invitations, on the online order cards, the stickers, jewelry tags as well as on the inside of the envelope

All text should reflect typeface guidelines (see pages 11-13) and the overall layout should be clean and consistent.
