It started with a birthday gift. In 2024, Daniela Groza crafted a pair of custom hearing aid covers for her partner Declan McLaughlin. For the first time in his life, Dec's hearing aids didn't feel like medical devices. They felt intentional, personal, and worth showing off. Dec had been hard of hearing since birth, and for years had worn just one hearing aid when he needed two because of the stigma.

From that moment, Auzi was born. Daniela, a GIA Graduate Gemologist with 14 years of experience and a degree in Jewelry and Silversmithing from Edinburgh College of Art, brought her craft to a cause. Dec brought his lifelong understanding of what it means to navigate the world with hearing aids. Together, they built a brand on a simple belief: hearing aids deserve to be celebrated, not hidden.

The name Auzi comes from the Romanian word meaning "to hear," a nod to Daniela's heritage, and also plays on "Au," the chemical symbol for gold, and on the word "audio," reinforcing their mission to elevate hearing aids through design.

This lot includes 2 sterling silver Ear Looms from Auzi's HEARLOOM line, designed for behind-the-ear hearing aids. Lightweight and made for everyday wear, crafted from sterling silver with the same quality materials as their full luxury line. Visit Auzi. https://www.myauzi.com/

Jenni Ahtiainen is a Finnish fashion designer who had designed stage costumes for artists including Marilyn Manson, Snoop Dogg, and Bono. Then she got her hearing aids. Her first reaction was shock. She was going to be living with hearing devices for the rest of her life. She looked at eyeglasses and thought: if you have bad eyesight you can choose frames that suit your style. But if you have bad hearing, you are stuck with the same medical-looking machines forever.

She innovated a small holster around the hearing aids and hung leather strips into the holster. Suddenly the hearing aids felt more like her. They looked like her. And she looked like herself. That is how DEAFMETAL was born.

Jen Aslin, a US audiologist, discovered DEAFMETAL in 2020 and knew immediately that bringing it to America was the right thing to do. Together, Jenni and Jen built DeafMetalUSA, dedicated to reducing the stigma of hearing loss through jewelry that is beautiful, functional, and unapologetically visible.

This lot includes 2 DeafMetalUSA Double Safety Ring retention jewelry pieces, designed for hearing aids with no piercing required.

These fun and functional decals are repositionable, designed specifically for decorating and personalizing hearing aids.

The BeBopShop was started by Michelle, whose daughter was born hard of hearing. When her daughter was about nine months old, the family went on a hike with her in a backpack carrier. Halfway through, they realized she had pulled out one of her hearing aids and thrown it. They found it the next day after a search and rescue effort. That moment was where the idea for the retention cord was born.

Michelle brought her sister Debbie in to help. Debbie had never used an embroidery machine before, but said yes, bought one, and together they built the BeBopShop, going from a jelly cord with a plastic clip to a paracord with a durable stainless-steel clip, and from a simple idea to a business with some of the most loyal customers in the hearing community.

In 2016, Michelle was diagnosed with breast cancer. When treatments became too much, Debbie took over the day-to-day running of the shop. In 2021, Michelle passed away. The BeBopShop was so important to her sister, and it is important to Debbie. It is a connection to Michelle and to her niece, and Debbie has continued to run it for as long as there is a need.

This lot includes two hearing aid and cochlear implant necklaces and two retention cords all made with care.

Shameera was born in 1996 with a rare chromosome condition called Partial Trisomy 18. In addition to a significant cognitive delay, she also had a mild to moderate hearing loss diagnosed at age two, and started wearing behind-the-ear hearing aids soon after. Then came the challenge: how to keep them on.

One day, on a hike with Shameera in a backpack carrier, her father Mark didn't notice until halfway through that she had pulled out one of her hearing aids and thrown it. He found it the next day after what he describes as a few gray hairs and a search and rescue effort. That was the final straw. He came up with the idea of colorful spandex sleeves that would cover her hearing aids and essentially lock them in place, attached to a cord and a clip so that even if she removed them, they would hang safely. Shameera loved them. Their audiologist loved them. Ear Gear was born.

Each of these six coupons is redeemable for one free pair of standard Ear Gear protective covers that are waterproof, sweat-resistant, and made for active kids and adults alike.

Nikki and Reagan are a hearing mother and her hard of hearing daughter duo. Their goal is to inspire pride and confidence in wearing hearing aids. They started Hearing Aid Whimsy because the accessories brought them joy and opened up conversations about hearing and better hearing and they wanted to share that with others.

Together they created a line of Tube Twirls and charms designed specifically for behind-the-ear hearing aids, so kids and adults alike can match their devices to their outfit, celebrate a season, or just feel like themselves.

This lot includes several sets of Tube Twirls and hearing aid charms, made with the kind of love that only a mother-daughter team can put into something. Perfect for any Clarke School family.
