Breaking the boundaries of traditional engagement and wedding jewelry
At LOLiDE, I am committed to offering a safe and inviting space for those who may not have felt welcome or represented in traditional jewelry stores.
Hers and hers. His and his. Hers and his. All of the above, none of the above. I’ve made gender neutral rings from day one, driven by my own experience of struggling with the gender binary and never fitting into either box. Inclusivity, visibility, and respect for all forms of non-traditional weddings – however you choose to define them – are driving concepts behind my work at LOLiDE.

We’re all painfully familiar with our culture’s lingering, antiquated formula for buying wedding jewelry.
She gets a big rock, he gets a plain band, everybody moves on. It’s time to throw out the binary, sexist assumptions that go along with the traditional approach.
LGBTQ+, gay, lesbian, bi, genderqueer, non-binary, trans, cis, straight, intersexed – however you identify, whomever you love, you are welcome here. My goal is to help my customers express themselves with rings that reflect their personal style – and their special bond – in a way that they’ll be proud to wear every single day.
Gender-Neutral Rings
I specialize in creating designs that defy traditional gender roles.
These rings are for anyone who wants to stand apart from the gender constraints of traditional wedding jewelry. They’re for the woman wants something bold, modern, and strong to reflect her personality; for the guy who wants some sparkle on his finger to match the twinkle in his eye; and for non-binary folks who want to wear a symbol of love – without a gender label attached.
At heart, I’m an artist and a designer, so I love creating beautiful, unique things that make people happy. It’s your piece. It can – and should – be anything you want it to be.
Engagement Rings for All
So you want to “put a ring on it.” Asking someone to say “I do” can be both exciting and stressful. While you may be imagining the thrill of the surprise, from ring size to design, it can go wrong in so many ways. It doesn’t have to be that way – I’m here to help!
Why not consider a mutual engagement? An engagement ring is a beautiful, traditional symbol of love and commitment, but it is also rooted in patriarchal ideas of ownership and inequality. I try to bring that tradition into the present by making engagement rings for men and women and helping to guide my clients on ways to bring their style, values and aesthetic into the process.
Non-Traditional Styles
Jewelry is a beautiful, traditional way to signify fidelity and permanence across all cultures and societies that is thousands of years old. Still, you never want to get stuck in convention for convention’s sake, especially if those conventions are rooted in patriarchal oppression and exclusion.
I’m really excited by new ways of thinking about family and relationships. I want to help my clients move toward authentic, organic ways of relating to themselves and the people they love, helping them redefine romance, family, and friendship in more personal and poetic ways.
