Loren Stewart Jewelry: Gold Safety Pins, Chains and Rings
Loren Stewart started in 2009 when Rachel Loren began melting down her own vintage gold jewelry to make pieces she could not find anywhere else, later joined by sisters Satya and Annah Stewart. The label built its identity on that idea of transformation, turning safety pins, ID tags, and utilitarian hardware into fine gold and gemstone pieces. Everything is still handmade by small teams of artisans in downtown Los Angeles and a family factory in Italy rather than mass produced.
