In this sparkling episode, hosts Teddi and Melissa welcome a Chicago-born jewelry designer Maancy (pronounced MAHN-see), who creates modern, interchangeable jewelry pieces. From her "I can't find what I want to wear" frustration to studying at the prestigious Gemological Institute of America, Maancy's journey to launching her brand in October 2023 is nothing short of inspiring. Her designs are a stunning fusion of Art Deco glamour and modernist architecture, transforming gorgeous gemstones like quartz and calcite into wearable art that speaks volumes.
Maancy spills all the tea on why she chose to work with just three master artisans in a dreamy downtown LA atelier instead of going the cheaper overseas route. These skilled craftspeople hand-forge each piece in solid sterling silver, creating jewelry so personalized you practically know whose hands touched your earrings! Fresh off her debut at Paris Fashion Week (yes, PARIS!), where buyers couldn't stop buzzing about her innovative concept, Maancy is proving that sustainable luxury isn't just possible, it's personal.
