Isabel Designs

We are sisters – Susan and Nancy. We treasure the simple things in life. From the time we were little girls, we were encouraged to practice traditions commonly passed on from mothers to daughters. The most cherished lessons were taught by our Mother’s example. As children, our Mom used to make all our clothes. She baked cookies for our school lunches. At home every meal was an opportunity to celebrate family. We grew up understanding that hard work reaped great rewards, that being thrifty meant we had more to share, and that working with our hands and our heart is a wonderful way to breathe life into the world. Our Mother’s name was Marie Isabel. She lost her battle to ovarian cancer in 2001, but the legacy she left us continues. It is in this spirit that we create for Isabel Designs, and donate a portion of the proceeds of each sale to Ovarian Cancer Research.

Each piece of jewelry is individually handmade using a combination of materials from both new and renewed sources. As you browse through our collection, be on the lookout for eco-friendly designs. Many of our creations are inspired by abandoned vintage jewelry, reclaimed objects from our surroundings and natural beauties from the earth. We select just the right mix of colour, texture and shape to create jewelry that looks great and is fun to wear. We hope you like what you see.
