Jewelry

Damn Regina

by Ellie Pellettiere

Ellie Pellettiere is a jewelry designer who finds her inspiration in the beauty of the islands, particularly the ocean and gemstones.

After a hiatus from creative work during college, she reignited her passion for jewelry-making in 2017. That spark led her to leave a corporate job she hated, work only for herself, and make beautiful things she believes in.

She works seashells and vibrant colour into her designs, makes bold statements with gem colours, and is bringing sterling silver back alongside our love of gold. Ellie sells mainly through pop ups between the islands, her website, and the retail store Sister Sister on Kauaʻi.
