OUR STORY
Welcome to STUDIO HAMPTONS®. I started SH because of my love of jewelry and the lack of reasonably priced good quality costume bracelets on the market. The bracelets I was finding were of poor quality or unreasonably expensive. My goal was to create a beautiful high quality bracelet that is affordable.
I consulted a few jewelry design professionals and was taught the art of bracelet design and construction. After further study of stones, gems and learning about hardware, I decided it was time to purchase materials and make my own bracelets.
When wearing my bracelets, I would often get stopped by people who would ask where I bought them. When I shared that I made them, they would ask if I would make some for them to purchase. My bracelet designs are mostly inspired by the natural beauty surrounding my home in the Hamptons.
Being a model since the age of 12, I was fortunate to work with many talented luxury jewelry brands such as Cartier, David Yurman, John Hardy, Henry Dunay and Steven Lagos. I would often wear pieces from their collections while mixing with my own basic pieces and some costume as well. Since I was a young girl, I have always had a love for jewelry. I wanted to show off my own style with SH as well as be able to intermix fine jewelry with everyday casual pieces. I hope that you will too!
...And that is how STUDIO HAMPTONS® was born. Thank you for all the support.
