stone and strand

Founded in 2013 by Nadine McCarthy Kahane while she was attending Wharton Business School, Stone and Strand was created to fill a gap in the market between high-end luxury houses and disposable costume jewelry. The New York City-based, female-founded brand offers modern, delicate fine jewelry designed for everyday wear and self-purchase. The collection consists of stackable rings, layered necklaces, and subtle earrings crafted from solid gold, sterling silver, and ethically sourced, conflict-free diamonds and gemstones. By operating primarily direct-to-consumer, the brand avoids traditional retail markups, making fine jewelry more accessible to a younger, professional audience.
