Worn with Meaning

"I discovered LJ Artisan Designs in 2022 when a friend had a necklace made for me from her mother’s jewelry. It was such a beautiful and meaningful piece, and from that moment I was hooked! Leah’s artistry is second to none—she combines expertise with genuine care, creating jewelry that is not only stunning but deeply personal. She carefully researches and sources her materials, always going above and beyond to find the perfect fit for each customer. I especially appreciate how she sent me photos of different stones so I could choose the one that resonated with me in this ring she is showcasing. Every interaction with Leah is thoughtful, professional, and heartfelt. I cannot recommend LJ Artisan Designs highly enough!"

—Debbie

Debbie first found her way to LJ Artisan Designs through a meaningful gift—a necklace created from heirloom jewelry passed down from her friend’s mother. That experience sparked a connection, and in the time since, she has continued to embrace jewelry as a form of self-expression, connection, and beauty.

After purchasing the Wynona Bracelet—a bold cuff featuring a uniquely luminous Peruvian blue opal—Debbie reached out to create a custom ring that would complement its colors, textures, and rustic elegance. I began the process by sourcing the perfect green gemstone that would provide the perfect counterpoint to the opal’s nature-infused greens.

Debbie chose a beautiful, mossy green faceted emerald, full of natural life and vibrance. The hue was a perfect match—rich enough to stand on its own while beautifully echoing the bracelet’s organic beauty.

For the setting, she selected a wide, hand-embossed sterling silver band—a bold and tactile foundation that pairs effortlessly with the Wynona Bracelet’s rustic styling. The final design brought all of those elements together: a piece that’s rustic yet elegant, and unapologetically striking.

This emerald ring isn’t just about matching—it’s about continuity, intention, and the joy of wearing something truly personal. It’s a piece Debbie can enjoy every day, knowing that every part of it—from stone to setting—was chosen just for her.
