About Lilikoi Project

Hi there, I'm Jill-proud owner of Lilikoi Project. Based in the vibrant city of Chicago, I specialize in crafting beautiful, handmade porcelain jewelry. My passion lies in creating small-batch, uniquely designed pieces that effortlessly blend bold aesthetics with everyday wearability. Each piece reflects my strong attention to detail and love for the craft. My chosen materials are a testament to quality – porcelain clay, 22k gold luster, and an array of stunning glazes infuse life into every piece. To ensure longevity, I carefully source gold-filled chains and jewelry components from trusted suppliers. My porcelain jewelry goes through three separate firings in a kiln before it is complete, and each firing takes about 24-hours—reaching temperatures over to 2,200°F. Due to the time involved in lovingly hand-crafting each and every piece from raw clay to final form, they are available for preorder only and take about three weeks to create and ship. Lilikoi Project is more than a jewelry brand—it's a celebration of creative expression as a means to joy and healing. As a creative soul, I've navigated the challenges of mental health, grappling with ADHD and anxiety as I strive to find my place in the world. I share my stories in my website and social media to help others feel less alone. Additionally, a portion of my proceeds directly supports three Chicago-based non-profits dedicated to championing mental health advocacy and support.
