Sweet Strawberry Ruby Pendant

Over a decade ago, my journey into jewelry began at a trade publication, where I fell in love with the artistry, symbolism, and stories behind each piece. What started as designing and curating meaningful jewelry for myself, friends and family quickly grew into something more. As my passion grew, my husband encouraged me to take the leap—and JBJ was born.

I’ve always believed jewelry is more than adornment. Before climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, I searched for a piece that would protect and ground me. I found a Ganesha pendant, a symbol of guidance and the remover of obstacles. Wearing it brought me calm, strength, and clarity, reminding me of the profound way jewelry can support the mind & body.

That belief is at the heart of every JBJ piece: jewelry with intention, meaning, and a story that becomes your own.
