“My vision is to design jewelry that stays out of the box. Remember, your jewelry introduces you before you speak … make it unforgettable.”

About the Jewelry

Not in a Box Jewelry is a unique and inspiring brand that embraces the beauty of vintage finds. These designs are not only beautiful and captivating, but also serve as a reminder that the world is full of stories waiting to be discovered and shared.

The brand’s designs incorporate a wide array of elements, ranging from coins and buttons to buckles, war medals, charms, and other imaginative finds. These unique vintage materials are carefully sourced and curated, ensuring that each piece possesses its own distinct character and narrative. The enchantment continues with the addition of semi-precious beads, crystals, and gemstones. These embellishments not only add a touch of elegance and beauty to the designs, but also complement the vintage elements, creating a one-of-a-kind design.

Not in a Box Jewelry takes pride in the fact that the antique materials used may exhibit slight imperfections and a unique patina. These imperfections are celebrated as they contribute to the overall history and story of each piece, enhancing their charm and character.
