Custom Revival for Timeless Beauty

Family dynamics — with all their love, challenges, and transformations — are reflected in the jewelry we treasure. Each piece tells a story of who we are, who we love, and what we value. Oil & Tess was born from this belief, and every design is a small celebration of those ties that bind us. If you’re reading this and thinking of your own family, I encourage you to take a moment to reflect on the pieces you own and the memories they hold. Maybe you have your grandmother’s locket or your father’s watch, or perhaps it’s time to start your own tradition — a piece that one day, someone you love will hold and remember you by. Jewelry, like family, is timeless. It doesn’t just decorate our lives; it shapes them. I want to bring your cherished heirlooms and pre-loved jewelry back to life—beautifully reimagined, yet forever rooted in their original story. The magic of a remake lies in its flexibility: transform just a detail or redesign entirely. The result is a piece that's uniquely yours—modern, meaningful, and infused with history. The process is a meaningful challenge for me and I love every minute!

My Approach

I draw my inspiration from nature’s colors—vivid blue eyes, sun-kissed hair, turquoise oceans lapping sandy beaches. I want to gather them all up and wear them. A crystal opal, with its rainbow of hues, is like carrying an entire vacation in one stone.

Flowers are another constant inspiration. Their colors, shapes, and symbolism fuel my designs. The Oli & Tess flower, in particular, represents my family’s unity: feminine yet strong, with an infinite love that binds us together.

The Oli & Tess collection began with the first ring I ever made. Though it was created for myself, I always knew it would one day belong to my daughter. Every piece I craft carries that same intention—made with care, love, and durability to last through generations.

Now, I’d love to share that process with you. Together, we can transform your heirlooms or inspirations into jewelry that brings your dreams to life.

Oli & Tess jewelry is timeless yet modern with a beautiful glance at Old World elegance. The quality of the workmanship is evident in each piece lovingly handcrafted in 18K yellow or rose gold. We are proud to represent her at Sheridan Boutique at Rancho Valencia Resort and Spa

The Process

1.

Chat with me about your jewelry & style.

2.

I will start sketching some ideas and we go from there!

3.

Once we decide on a design, I work with my CAD designer to turn it into a wax mould

4.

Once the wax is ready it gets sent to casting and then to my master jeweler where he will clean, polish and set it to perfection.

Bring Your Dreams to Life

Every person is unique, and every design I create reflects that individuality. Whether you’re dreaming of something entirely new or reimagining a beloved heirloom, my process is always personal. I begin by listening, sketching, and refining alongside you—transforming your inspiration into a piece that feels deeply your own.

From our first conversation to the final polish, I’ll guide you through each step. Together we’ll choose metals, select stones, and shape details with care. You can arrive with a clear vision or simply a feeling—either way, I’ll bring it to life with the same love and craftsmanship that define every Oli & Tess creation.
