About Essenshell

We believe every day should feel like summer—wild, beautiful, and effortlessly free. Essenshell is a nod to the essentials: timeless jewelry you’ll live in, inspired by the ocean, and handcrafted by Shelly, our co-founder and artisan. Our pieces are made from natural materials—stones and shells that have waited centuries to be found. They're meant to move with you: sweat, swim, and sun included. Whether you’re layering up for golden hour or adding a keepsake to your shop's story, Essenshell brings that coastal glow to every day. Rooted in family and driven by the joy of creating, we design each piece by hand in Brigantine, NJ, with sustainability, quality, and wearability in mind. We’ve partnered with brands like Terrain and Madewell for pop-ups and permanent jewelry experiences, and we’re always excited to work with stores that value beautiful, thoughtful things. Faith is the heart of what we do. We believe each gemstone is a tiny reminder of creation’s wonder—placed here with purpose, now ready to be part of someone’s story. Essenshell is more than jewelry. It’s a way of life—and we’re so glad you’re here.Read their story
