“I needed to find a unique present for a special occasion and so I contacted Alice. She showed me some vintage livery buttons from the 1700s.   She took them and made a beautiful set of earrings.  The gift is one of a kind. The process was seamless from design to fabrication to delivery.  Thank you, Alice!” -David 

“Not in a Box Jewelry has quickly become my favorite jewelry brand! I love the story behind each unique piece and as a Francophile myself, it’s amazing to have actual vintage finds from France within the collection. My mother and sisters love the collection as well. It’s so special that each of us can find something we like. Even with different taste, there really is something for everyone. The woman behind the designs, Alice Spears, is an inspiring woman with an incredible story. I cannot wait to add to my jewelry collection with more of her pieces.”

“I have bought several pairs of earrings from Not in a Box Jewelry. Each pair are beautiful and very unique. I have also commissioned a piece designed from a vintage Portuguese coin that sat in a drawer and is now a beautiful pendent that I can wear. My most recent commission was a vintage pair of screw back earrings that belonged to my grandmother and have been redesigned into a beautiful pair of contemporary pierced earrings. Her designs and craftsmanship are amazing. I am so pleased with her work.” -Judy

“I just purchased some very meaningful jewelry from Not in a Box. Alice is an amazing, talented person to work with and she was able to craft some necklaces for our daughters. She works with old coins, buttons and charms and turns keepsakes into new treasures. She is very creative and is so knowledgeable especially when it comes to gold and silver pieces. So happy with the results of our purchases” -Gerri
