Our story

Why I started With Olivia Grace

I was introduced to fine jewelry right out of college, and I've never looked back. After a decade in this industry, I founded With Olivia Grace in the summer of 2023 to design jewelry for women, by women.

To me, jewelry is an art form: it's a part of family history, a friendship, a love story. Something to cherish and tell a story.

What we believe

Intention without compromise

We believe in thoughtful design over excess. Quality over quantity. Craftsmanship that stands the test of time, not the trends of the moment.

Crafted in solid gold and sterling silver, every Olivia Grace piece is made for everyday wear and designed to last a lifetime. Jewelry that becomes part of your story, not just part of your collection.

Because the pieces you wear every day should grow more meaningful with every chapter they live through.

For women, by women

Designed by a woman, for women. Pieces that mark a chapter, celebrate a milestone, or are simply for you.

Hand-finished in New York

Made locally, not manufactured, and artisanal in every sense.

Made to be passed down

Classic designs in solid gold, made to last for years and, one day, to be passed down to your daughter or granddaughter.

    Becoming clearer

    Three years in, she is refining the collection around its core.“This process isn't about becoming smaller—it's about becoming clearer and building with intention.”

“I didn't want to create pieces simply because they'll sell. I wanted to create pieces because they deserve to exist.”

From the first sketch to the final polish

Designs begin as a sketch and a CAD drawing. Custom pieces are modeled in 3D so you can see them take shape, then finished by hand in New York.
