Ela Jewelry
Meet the Maker
Welcome! I'm Anna, a Brazilian transplant putting down roots in Nashville, TN. My journey into jewelry-making began alongside my mother, the owner of a small jewelry shop during my upbringing. Crafting jewelry has been a hobby since my teenage years, and after my mother's passing in 2017, transforming this hobby into a small business became a way to feel her presence.
My creative process is inspired by Mother Nature, and I am dedicated to respecting the environment. To uphold this commitment, I use materials that align with one or more of these values: fair trade, ethical, sustainable, recycled, salvaged, repurposed, or sourced from small local businesses. All recycled, salvaged and repurposed materials are carefully selected, ensuring they are in impeccable condition, resembling new items.
The name 'Ela' means 'she' in Portuguese, my native language, and it’s my tribute to all the important women in my life, especially my mother, sister, and daughter. Ela's mission is to celebrate and uplift women through creativity and collaboration. If you’re an individual or small business that share this mission and would like to collaborate in any way, please contact me.
I also provide jewelry repair services and accept custom orders. If you spot a piece you like in my shop but would like customization, please don't hesitate to contact me. I may be able to accommodate it at no additional charge. Reach out with your questions to elastore.contact@gmail.com. Thank you!
How it’s Made
This choker features the silk from the buriti palm trees (Mauritia flexuosa), found throughout Brazil and South America. I source the silk cords directly from artisans in Brazil who extract the silk from the leaves in a sustainable way and hand weave the thin cords. The cord is lightweight and delicate, yet strong. It's water-resistant, flexible and comfortable to wear. If it gets out of shape, simply reshape it with wet hands and let it dry. Slight variations in thickness and color are normal.
