ABOUT US

For Garland Collection, jewelry is always personal. When my hubby proposed more than eleven years ago (OK, more like begged. Misunderstanding protocol, he got down on both knees), we designed a crest for our wedding invitation incorporating our initials into an ornate, antique-style border.

On our first anniversary, I commissioned this wedding crest to be engraved into an unusual gold oval plate to remind me of that special day. I was a style writer and editor at the time, so what was simply intended as something special and sentimental ultimately took on a life of its own, as other editors and industry peers began requesting the plate with their own personalization. This necklace soon became Garland Collection’s Signature pendant and a jewelry line was born.

It seemed apropos to name Garland Collection after my grandparents, Leona and Stanley Garland, who are not only my style icons, but high school sweethearts who enjoyed a more than 60-year love story.

"Dynamic and often cheeky with a wink to the whimsical, the pieces that define Garland Collection are always classics."
