Jennifer Meyer

“I wanted to design pieces that you wore all the time.”

“I was born in '77 and the '90s was really when I started expressing myself in fashion.”

“I love food - all kinds of food, and I feel like I am never full. Sushi is my favorite if I had to pick.”

“I've never had a time where I didn't want to do my jewelry anymore. Once I started it, and once I realized I was really doing something I loved, I gave it my heart. When we first started the company, I did it all myself in our living room.”

“It's really been important for me for all these years to stay with my aesthetic - the everyday classic piece that you're not going to get sick of.”

“I knew what I wanted to wear and I couldn't find it: I wanted that delicate jewelry that you never took off, that you showered in, that you slept in.”

“I started my company with no previous experience in jewelry, or business for that matter! I pounded the pavement, learned as I went, and I feel so lucky to have received mentorship from some truly remarkable people.”

“Growing up we lived on the beach and in front of our house were all these tide pools. I remember every weekend going down to the tide pools for hours upon hours with my sister Sarah and searching for shells and crabs. It was endless entertainment.”

“My grandma, Edith, was one of the greatest inspirations in my life, both personally and professionally. She was an incredibly talented artist who shared her creativity with me from a young age and was a driving force in the launch of my jewelry line.”

“I'm really inspired by my friends and the way they layer their jewelry with classic pieces as well as with my pieces.”

“You know, my company is my company. My dad didn't help me, and I didn't get money from my family. I have the most supportive family and they would give me anything, but I always thought that I wanted to do something on my own and prove myself on my own for sure.”

“I was born and raised in L.A. I'm a L.A. girl. I love the quietness of L.A. and that you can just keep your head down and work.”

“When COVID-19 first hit, we thought everyone could use a little luck and created a hoodie for a few friends with our signature good luck motif. We were blown away by the social media response and now the sweatshirts regularly sell out on our website.”

“My grandmother was an artist and did enameling. She had a little apartment, and in her tiny little kitchen, she had a kiln. We used to sit there when I was six years old and she'd let me choose the colors and bake the pieces and create a necklace, or a ring, or a little piece of art.”

“I would love to be that woman in a scarf and large glasses pretending I'm in a Fellini movie, but that's just not my reality.”

“For me, jewelry is a true investment. It's sentimental and it's meaningful.”

“We have two kids, so it's a busy house. I want a place where the kids feel comfortable and like they can really live. I'm attracted to clean and modern but also feeling like you can plop yourself onto a couch and cuddle up.”

“I don't have the flattest stomach in the world; I wear looser cuts so I can eat a bowl of pasta if I want to.”

“I design for the inspiring, stylish women I meet every day. I try not to look around or be distracted by what other people are creating. I make jewelry that I want to keep for years to come and I really love what I do!”

“I'm really focused on continuing to make pieces that you can wear forever and with all the other things that you love.”
