About
Hi, I'm Jess, owner and silversmith at Olive & Jones Jewelry! O&J was established in 2021 in beautiful Southern California. The business name is a variation of my daughter's name, Olivia, and my dog's name, Jones - though her name isn't actually Jones, it's Darla, but that's what we call her from time to time!
I've loved jewelry and stones for as long as I can remember. To no surprise, my favorite exhibit as a child at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles was the Gems & Minerals section. After years of perusing many makers marts and feeling inspired by other silversmiths, I decided to try my hand and it's become my obsession ever since.
I'm a self-taught silversmith and everything in my shop is created by me!
