My Mom Spent 40 Years Making Jewelry By Hand. She's Gone Now. These Are Her Last Pieces.

Every piece was made by her hands, in her little shop in Granville, Ohio. I'm letting them go at up to 80% off. Because they deserve to be worn, not forgotten.

Once they're gone, there will never be more.

My mom Eleanor, took over my grandparents little jewelry shop at 19. No college, no business degree, no backup plan.

She just knew how to make things with her hands. And she knew people loved them.

Back then the shop was alive, women from all over Granville came in on Saturday mornings.

They knew Eleanor by name. They came back for anniversaries, birthdays, graduations. 

Some of them had been customers for 20 years.


Every single piece in that shop was made by her. By hand. No machines, no shortcuts.

Then Everything Changed

In the early 2000s the big jewelry chains moved in.

First one. Then another. Then a mall opened 20 minutes away. 

They could produce thousands of pieces a week in overseas factories and sell them for less than it cost my mom to buy her materials.

Her customers started disappearing one by one.

She never complained about it. Never blamed anyone. She just kept her head down and kept making things by hand the way she always had. 

She said if even one woman a week walked in and found something she truly loved, it was worth it.

But the truth is those last years were hard. 

 

Really hard.

Title

My mom passed away last summer.

No long illness, no time to prepare. One day she was there, and then she wasn't.

I drove back to Granville to handle everything. The apartment, the paperwork, all of it.

The shop was the last thing I walked into.

I Wasn't Ready For What I Found

I hadn't been in that shop in years.

Everything was exactly as she left it. Tools on the workbench. Half-finished pieces still in her vice. And hundreds of completed pieces, laid out in the display cases like she was expecting customers the next morning.

I picked up a ring. Her handwriting on the price tag.

I stood there for a long time.

I Couldn't Let It End In A Storage Box

I thought about just closing the door and walking away.

But these weren't just products sitting on a shelf. Every single piece had her fingerprints on it. 

Literally.

She made them to be worn. To be loved. To mean something to the woman wearing them.

Putting them in a box felt like erasing her.


So I built this site. 

She Always Wanted To Sell Them At These Prices

My mom priced every piece over $100. Not because she was greedy. Because handmade meant hours of labor, quality materials, and a tiny shop with rent to pay every month. It was the only way to keep going.

There's no shop anymore. No rent. No overhead. Just me and my family packing orders from our living room.

So I'm pricing everything the way she always wanted to. Every piece the way she priced them in her heart, not what she had to charge to survive.
 

And because every order we pack ourselves, the more you take in one order the more we can give back:
 

2 pieces — extra 15% off
3 pieces — extra 20% off
4 or more — extra 25% off


There are only a few hundred pieces left. Once they're gone, this site closes.

If you ever have a question, a problem, or a change of mind, my email is always open. Even after the site closes.
