Founded in 1988 by former Town & Country editor Elizabeth Locke, the jewelry brand translates a deep fascination with classical antiquities into wearable art. A life-altering assignment in Bangkok inspired Locke to pursue gemology and partner with Thai goldsmiths, a relationship that continues to this day. Her designs are rooted in the aesthetics of Etruscan, Greek, and Roman jewelry, creating a signature neoclassical style.
