jolie rings

Jolie Designs is based out of Los Angeles,California USA... and they are one of the main reasons Kenny still comes in to sit at his jeweler's bench everyday.

Vintage looking rings are seriously difficult to make. Seriously. Back in the day, when these detailed sorts rings weren't "vintage" yet and were considered de rigueur, they were made over and over again using molds. For us to craft a one-of-a-kind ring with the same intricacies, is a bit like re-inventing the wheel every time. It's time and labor intensive. Not that we can't do it, or haven't or won't. In fact, we've made many vintage looking rings over the years, complete with miniscule bead-set diamonds and itty bitty (yes that's a technical term) hand millgraining. Only problem was that Kenny needed a four week beach vacation after each one, and we just couldn't afford that drink tab. All joking aside, we needed a US based designer with impeccable hand craftsmanship to help us out, not just to relieve Kenny, but to provide a more cost effective option for our wonderful clients who adore the vintage look.

Thus our relationship with Jolie Designs was born, simultaneously thrilling our vintage loving clients and saving Kenny's liver. We still craft vintage looking rings, but Jolie rings tend to be a little easier on the wallet. Our detail intensive, vintage inspired rings are one-of-a-kind and generally speaking are priced much higher than what you see here.
