About

LoveStoned Jewelry Co. was born out of a love of gemstones and crystals that I have had since I was a teenager. As someone who struggled with anxiety, I found calm in metaphysical shops in and around Boston. I'd stay for hours and just soak in the atmosphere, my spirits lifted. I remember going to one shop I used to frequent and handing the owner the crystals I wanted to buy. They had been warm in my hand and, when I gave them to her, she said I had an affinity for them. That has stuck with me ever since, almost 20 years later.

I continued to collect crystals on and off throughout my life and, when COVID-19 hit, I made gemstone jewelry as a way to cope with my anxiety and the uncertainty of the pandemic. Not only was the physical act of beading relaxing, but I loved experimenting with different combinations for different intentions. I read a bunch of books and websites and took different crystal courses to expand my knowledge.

As my inventory grew, I slowly started branching out to making bracelets for family and friends. After posting a few photos in a Facebook group, I received an overwhelmingly positive response—group members wanted to buy my jewelry! With their encouragement and support, I officially opened LoveStoned Jewelry Co. in August 2020.

Each piece of jewelry I make is handcrafted with natural gemstones chosen not just for their beauty, but for their ability to inspire calm, confidence, and connection.

I hope my pieces serve as a small but meaningful part of your self-care and healing journey, as they have for my own.
