It’s hard to believe what started at my Kitchen Table as a passion project has now reached a DECADE of capturing memories for thousands of amazing customers around the world! From taking local jewelry making classes to working with amazing designers to grow our catalogue, I’ve always wanted to make sure there was a little something for everyone in our collections.

  2010 – Luxe Collection | Dune Bar & Island 

When I was first creating designs, I wanted the sand to be the centerpiece. Clean lines and geometric shapes that are perfect to dress up or to wear with jeans and a t-shirt. These collections are part of our Luxe Process. I love using chunkier sands like Positano (where I honeymooned), and Thailand (where I would love to go someday)!

 

2012 – Sandbeads

Remember when collectible charm bracelets were the must-have jewelry item? I created Sandbeads to fit perfectly on most bracelets including Pandora and Chamilia. You can easily wear these beads as a sweet little reminder of your most cherished memories or to tell your favorite travel stories. We’ve recently added more shapes to the collection because in my opinion, collecting your travels and telling the story through your charm bracelet – well, that will never go out of style!

2015 – Wave Collection

It’s hard to imagine a time when our best-selling Wave Necklace wasn’t part of the line-up. Iconic yet unique to Dune, the Wave Collection has been a favorite for our Coastal Collectors since day one!. It’s especially a must have with our Turquoise Gradient Technique. 

2017 – The Larimar Collection

When my daughter Alexa first saw a larimar stone in Punta Cana she said, “Mama, this looks like frozen ocean water!” I knew then and there that I had to create a collection using this precious stone found only in the Dominican Republic. The gorgeous blues of the stone bring me back to being seaside every time. I love our Serenity Collection which allows you to get creative and add your choice of sand or a natural element to the piece to compliment the blue centerpiece.

2018 – Men’s Collection

For a while our offering for Men’s Jewelry consisted of cufflinks. I wanted to add something for our favorite guys to wear every day which started with the Lava and Wood Beaded Bracelets. My husband Eric wears his Nautical Woven Bracelet with sand from our first family vacation to St. Thomas. Stay tuned for more additions to this collection!

2020 – Picture Frames & Home Accents

Not everyone is a jewelry wearer (hard to believe, I know!), so I wanted to add some Dune Jewelry for your home. I started with Wine Stoppers – a great hostess gift paired with a bottle of Barefoot Wine. This year we debuted our first Picture Frame with great success. I cherish mine with a picture of my girls, Lexa & Lyla on Cape Cod and sand from the same beach. 

 

We’re always creating new designs. Whether it’s a trendy bracelet or a completely unique necklace design, we have something for everyone. Have an idea for something you’d like to see on dunejewelry.com? Email me at [email protected]
