About Zil Jewelry

I discovered my love for jewelry-making while living in New Orleans from 2014-2016. I was 24 years old and a little lost and truthfully, I didn't have a clue what direction to head in. I never felt I was cut-out for a traditional career and lifestyle. My independence had always been a major driving force in my life. One day, I decided to take on a project of making an arm cuff. Being the DIY hobbyist that I am, I saw one that I loved, and just had to figure out how I could create one for myself! What I didn’t realize was that this random little project would quickly transform into my life’s work and passion! Jewelry-making seemed to perfectly marry 3 very important values in my life: independence, self expression, and creativity. So, I decided I had to go for it and carve out my own path! I wanted to design accessories that could act as details to highlight someone’s originality. After some self-teaching and eventually, a metal-smithing apprenticeship with Queens Metal Jewelry, I was ready to launch my first collection in 2015. Armed with passion, I set out to hand-make jewelry as extraordinary as the person wearing it! Zil Jewelry is for those who dare to set themselves apart. It’s for those bold souls who forge their own path by fearlessly expressing themselves. My designs are here to accentuate and elevate your individuality. Let’s face it, you’re already a showstopper with unique style. It’s time to celebrate that and reflect it with accessories as distinctive as you are!Read their story
