the maker

I’ve had a love affair with making jewelry since my twenties — a quiet passion that stayed with me even as life pulled me in different directions. Years later, while working in a jewelry repair workshop, I learned the craft more deeply, hands-on. But it wasn’t until a life-changing event set me on a path of healing that something shifted. I felt a creative surge I couldn’t ignore, and with it, the urge to create something entirely my own.

That’s when L'Atelier Perle was born — from a place of healing, joy, and salty swims in the sea. Ocean swimming became both a ritual and a muse, helping me reconnect with myself and sparking the colors, patterns, and movement that now define my designs. With the encouragement of my swim crew and the beautiful surprise of early success, I found myself falling head-over-heels in love with the creative process all over again.

Each piece of jewelry is made with care, curiosity, and a whole lot of heart — hand-threaded, joyfully bohemian, and designed to bring a little play and color into your world. I hope when you wear L'Atelier Perle, you feel that same spark I felt creating it — light, vibrant, and ready to celebrate yourself.
