An unusual path led Page to becoming a jewelry designer and entrepreneur. After a liberal arts education, she worked for various biotech startups until her co-workers started to clamor for her handmade jewelry. Page had always loved working with her hands, having spent time in her grandfather’s woodcarving workshop as a child.
Jewelry turned from a side business into a full-time job after a move from San Francisco to New York City in 2003. Over the past 20 years, Page has developed a distinctive style that incorporates textural brushstrokes in recycled 18 karat gold with vibrant sapphires and antique diamonds.
In November 2020, Page opened her own jewelry studio and retail shop in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, where all of her jewelry is made, including custom engagement rings and wedding bands. She was able to retain all 3 of her employees during the pandemic and, because her business has continued to grow, her team has now doubled.
Page received an Accompany Capital loan in 2023 from the NYC Opportunity Fund to purchase raw materials to meet the increased demand for custom-made pieces. In the future, Page hopes to open a second storefront because she loves to connect with her customers on a personal level.
