Our Story

Being from a family of jewelers, and not the glamorous kind that you might think of. The ones behind the scenes creating it,  I have gained a special appreciation. Where it comes from, the time, expertise and skills required to make a quality piece, and the knowledge and trust it takes to get it in the hands of clients. Immigrants from Brazil, my grandparents came to the United States and lived out their American dream. Starting their own small business working tirelessly making jewelry from hand carved waxes. My dad worked for my grandfather right out of college and found his passion in hand crafting jewelry and has been doing it for over 25 years. I am so proud to be a part of something so unique. 

I was born and raised in Washington and attended college in California. My passion for people and being a part of their life story led me to get my degree in nursing. As many of my friends began getting serious about marriage, they wanted a personal experience picking out their ring, knowing exactly where it was made and being a part of the process. I found myself helping to plan engagements, designing rings and being deemed the best secret keeper! I was passionate about this and loved the excitement it brought to my friends and I shared in that excitement with them. I wanted not only their engagement to turn out perfectly, but the ring we designed to be flawless, every detail mattered. This cultivated my passion for not only fine jewelry, but my continued passion for people and their story. I want to be a part of as many stories as possible and strive to make the day she says “yes” and they say “I do” one they will never forget!
