Our jewelry features precious metals, copper, brass, gemstones, and rustic hammered finishes. Alison Kelley is the driving force behind the brand Alison Kelley Designs. Her journey into the world of jewelry making began during her high school years. She was always drawn to the personal and intimate nature of jewelry, a sentiment that was ingrained in her through her experiences with her mother’s jewelry box. Each piece had a story, a memory attached, making them not just beautiful pieces of adornment, but also historical tokens of personal experiences. For Alison, jewelry making was not just a hobby. It was a passion that captured her heart and soul. It became a therapeutic process for her, a restorative creative outlet that allowed her to express herself and connect with her innermost feelings and emotions. Motherhood brought about significant changes in Alison’s life. After the birth of her three boys, she found herself grappling with postpartum depression, a struggle that became more noticeable after her third child. It was her mother, who acknowledged her pain and suggested she return to her long-lost passion – jewelry making. This proved to be a turning point in her life. The process of creation helped her combat the emotional distress she was going through and gradually lifted her out of the depths of depression. Encouraged by her family and friends, Alison found the strength and motivation to turn her passion into her profession. She took the plunge and officially launched her own business, Alison Kelley Designs, in January 2007. This was a significant milestone in her life that marked the beginning of a new journey. Alison’s collections are unique. She features one-of-a-kind and limited-edition jewelry designs, all of which she personally designs and creates. The process of creation is magical to her; each piece holds a part of her soul, making it unique and personal. Alison is deeply grateful for the support she has received over the years. She cherishes her interactions with her customers and hopes that they will value and treasure her creations. Her ultimate reward is the joy and satisfaction of her customers who appreciate and love her pieces as much as she loves making them.
