Working out of her home in Bel Air, California, a panoply of art, antiques, textiles, flora and fauna are illustrative of Jenna’s personal style. Similar themes are evident in her jewelry, which features vibrant colors, definitive textures and unexpected materials. Striking and expressive, her work reimagines traditional forms and silhouettes in pieces that seamlessly complement a contemporary lifestyle. Jenna considers collecting in and of itself an artform, and her jewelry is a harmonious marriage between past and present that highlights the reverence she has for treasure-seeking, with each of her pieces conveying a sense of wonder and excitement.

One of her primary inspirations for launching her collection was to provide access to some of the beauty of the past to others. This same spirit of accessibility is a driving force in creating pieces that are sophisticated yet versatile, easily transitioning from a relaxing day with the family or friends to an evening gala or important work event. Designed to be stacked and layered with intention, she envisions for collectors of her work to express their mood and personality through adornment.

A deep wellspring of creativity that Jenna has showcased from a young age is manifested throughout every touchpoint of her brand and is evident in the playfulness of her designs. From fresh interpretations of mainstays of jewelry design to strands of multi-hued beads to bold cocktail rings, there are nuances of commonality throughout Jenna’s work. Uncompromising in quality of both materials and craftsmanship, her jewelry evokes both the sentimentality and the permanence of heirlooms.
